Interesting. Thanks for your help! Were your giganteus smaller than usual? Two of the adults I have are only 2.5 inches. Any idea what causes them to be smaller? I guess I'll just have to buy better feeders sometime in the future.



>>They are not discoids. I bought 3 dozen of these so called death heads from Dave. At the same time I bought his remaining discoids. I was bummed they where not death heads, but they where more of a hobby. I have a huge lobster feeding colony, even though I hate these climbers. I also have large orange spot, orange head, and 4-spot colonies. I can't preach enough how the orange spots(dubia) are the best non-climbing roach on the market. I have Besides true death heads I have most of the best non-climbers and these guys are the easy. It really helps that males and females are so different. On the giganteus you got. mine are breeding fine. You will probably just feed the babies at about a month old to your lizards. My orangeheads have also breed very well. I have noticed most East Coast people prefer discoids and death heads, and the West Coast people do better with the orangies. Must be the climate. If i could ever learn how to post pictures I will put my different species on here.
