I've been keeping them as pets for over 10 yrs now. I absolutely adore them. Keep the males and females separate to control population. I like to breed for size, so I select only the biggest for mating. Don't underestimate their climbing skills tho; they can walk up glass and push open lids. Left the female tank open once... was up all night collecting them. They love to climb up furniture and sit on the males' enclosures. The males show no interest in escaping, they stay put and protect their territory. Appears to be the male pheromone that attracts the females.

Like many of the species people consider "pests" or "vermin" cockroaches are just going about their business, trying to make a humble living. It's sometimes, or even often, human behaviour which is the problem. Leave rubbish out in the streets - rats and pigeons will clear it up. I guess an infestation of roaches isn't great, and people may struggle to control numbers once established even if they're taking all measures for cleanliness. But I've only seen single roaches "in the wild" and I kinda liked them. I saw some (live) exotic species in a museum and I thought they looked awesome! Education is the key, finding out where the little critters in the world fit in and the benefits they bring. Clint and Rus are great people to learn from. Can I get myself one of these hissers now please? (@ Mr A)
@awesomeanimalswithalishav58743 жыл бұрын
Hissers are definitely one of my favorite pets. I'm always advocating for them and I don't even like roaches in general because I've lived with pest ones. These guys are so cool though. Their care is so simple; I have mine in 10 gallon tanks added a vaseline barrier to the top rim so they can't escape, have a screen lid on it, then just feed them chicken crumbles and veggies. Some people don't like them, but I just use water crystals for water since sponges didn't work well for me. Also added a few hides and egg cartons. I got some fun pictures for my Instagram of them crawling all over a pumpkin hide and a skull hide. I have 6 colonies and 100's of them since they keep breeding. They're especially great compared to the dubia which were supposed to be my feeder roaches and just haven't flourished in the exact same conditions. The Hissers are so personable it took me a long time to start using them as feeders, but my beardies gobble them up. Though they do get a little big eventually for the bearded dragons (all except my Bastian who dives headfirst into their enclosures to grab the largest ones she sees. They seem to work pretty well for cleanup crews too. I added a couple when I made my bioactive ball python tank and everyone seems to be doing fine. My ball python is having good sheds, the isopods & springtails & mealworms are everywhere, and the hissers even share the snake's hide. There was a bit of an awkward beginning when hissers and snake met, but it made for funny video.

I still miss them but I know that I did them all a favor.. Or at least I hope I did because I never did a follow up on them which I also regret not doing and feel terrible about.. Why do I feel this way about insects? THEY ARE AWESOME! THAT is why!

A big con with cochroaches in general is that they are very allergenic. Some speicies more than others. Discolids and dubias are among the worst. For me atleast. I cant even be in the same room as a dubia colony without having severe allergic reactions, and i really mean severe! I have little experience with hissers, but those are not that bad. "Red runners" i also can stand and use them as feeders. But in general, cochroaches are very allergenic. They can even be a cause of astma in many people. So as Clint sait about people beeing more affraid of cochroaches than snakes, it make sense in that aspect. I love all insects including cochroaches, dont get me wrong here, but i just cant stand them from an allergic person stand point

@@Aquarimax I love those wiggly antennas! I've been staring down all the various species like the hundreds found on Roach Crossing. A big unknown since most are kept as feeders. Hissers seem to be the most logical choice and would be my first choice but I'd love to see the others they have. I just don't wanna have to buy 20 darn roaches for a colony. I would only want maybe 2 males or something. I dunno how long they live and how you'd prevent having a ton of them. They wouldn't be feeders so it'd not be ideal to have more than a handful. Honestly I'm glad I'm not the only person on earth who looks at cockroaches and finds them cute and potentially a good pet! That means maybe those questions can be answered. Would love to find some people IRL who keep them. I'd much rather have a pet roach or jumping spider before ever thinking about having a cat, hedgehog, or opossum.

He pretty much only climbs behind his background which is kind of annoying seeing I set up his amazing tank, but whatever makes him happy i guess. Mine is an amazing climber and will litteraly crawl right up and into my hand if I put it by him. I use a milk cap for water but often let it dry out and just give him sprays a lot. I feed him carrots and greens and pretty much a ton of other veggies. I also give him super high quality cat food and some wet cat treat with pretty much only chicken in it.

I got 5 more, with hopefully babies on the way. It is surprising how much these little guys can crawl into your heart. Biggest question is, how do I know when the female is about to give birth? Mine look like they're about to pop and sometimes look like they're pushing...but then it just turns out to be poop.

I breed them to feed them to my tarantulas, but I really like them and feel bad about it

Hi. I HAVE A QUESTION. I have gotten giant hissers for the first time from a friend and yesterday I have found one with murky, blue eyes. Do they go like this just before shedding, is it an eye mutation or something to be worried about like some sort of disease. Please let me know. Thanks!

Hmmm…not sure about that one, as I have limited experience with hissers myself .

Would these be good to feed to a giant Veitanamese centepide, or not?

Do they fly? Some did in some videos. Idk if those were cockroaches at all though....
@waldenwraith39403 жыл бұрын
Hissers don’t have wings at all, if you saw some fly in a video that was likely a different species.

If Clint scored these, they would probably get the illusive 5/5 for all five categories
