My MAGNIFICENT ROACHES - Moving them in bigger enclosure!

[@Khornate888]

I'm so happy the roaches I sent you are doing well! I've been looking forward to seeing your update on them! Yay, I hope the colony thrives, and lives on for many many years.

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

Thanks for the content. I looove this species

[@Bmxdad40]

Do you know where I can find these in the United states?...I did a brief search and the few that I found were $50-$80 usd each????

[@Khornate888]

@@Bmxdad40 I'm afraid I don't know. I'm from the UK. If I could send to the USA I would, since I now have like, 500 or so Emerald roaches. $50 per roach is insane.

[@Mjc5281]

@@Bmxdad40 Fearnottarantulas has them available at the moment, I’m thinking about grabbing some too.

[@Bmxdad40]

@@Mjc5281 I just looked $135 each 😳😖🤯

[@thebloodyenglish6620]

The sliver bugs are a species of sprintail and are good both as part if a bioactive system and to culture as feeders for small frogs and baby geckos so you should encourage them to populate! They're also more mobile then the typical Collembola available. The ones in question look like Tomocerus minor or a similar species.

"I didn't ride my bike, what am I talking about, I teleported!" 😂😂😂 Your roaches are really pretty Petko, but all the other ones give me the creeps!

[@imaybestupid2045]

we need more roach guy lmao, seems like a pretty cool guy

[@danielaarienti9511]

I would use dish soap and a bit of water, instead of just water. When I have to clean/refine fresh silicone inside corners I use to wet a finger in water with dish soap and pass the finger all over the line. Very easy to clean as the silicone doesn't stick with water and soap

[@nicholasquerceto7575]

Yeah it's a different kind of springtails, always beneficial. They are probably the endemic springtails of your country ;)

[@Helveteshit]

@The Dark DEn, buy Beekeeper's pen. And dot their carapace, and you can see if they rotate between dry and moist.

[@gabrielt5185]

I really like the emerald ones, they're so beautiful! Good to see the Roach Guy as well! Hope you two are doing well! :)

[@Liverbird1984]

Great video Petko. Looking forward to seeing all the dark den babies in the future. I wanted to tell you that this past weekend i held a baby tarantula. Always been terrified of them or any other spider in fact and name dropped the dark den. Never thought in a million years that i would be able to do this. They feel like they weigh nothing. All thanks to this channel for helping me be less scared. So thank you Petko much love all the way from Liverpool in the UK.

[@bugsmetropolis1]

Great video as always! Another dark den banger 🔥👇

[@colinwoodside2370]

Try some vegetable oil on the part of the glass you don't want the silicone to stick to.

[@crazyidiot5309]

This is the way.

[@Jill5423]

Such gorgeous roaches!! Im in canada so the only roaches we are legally allowed to keep are Surinam roaches and Discoid roaches. I do love my surinam roaches, they are so small and cute, plus are a great feeder for my lizards and arachnids but I'm so sad I can't keep these Emerald beauties! Thanks for sharing, I love your content!

[@marcinadasiewicz4839]

Hi Petko, greetings from Poland, love your content and cant wait for next monday :D keep it up!

[@kentvikman1086]

Those tiny bugs looks like some sort of a leafhopper, Auchenorrhyncha, or maybe a species of springtail.

[@luisemoralesfalcon4716]

They really look gorgeous, nice enclosure.

[@Mellie_H]

Love The Roach Guy! You two crack me up!

[@fudganuld]

Ha Ha ..Chasing that roach at the end..ha Quality..!

[@craigbaynon8356]

Not sure if this has been said before. I have used Vaseline / petroleum jelly for the barrier between glass and silicone to stop it adhering to gain a more sealed enclosure. Hope this helps.

[@rawrimreptar08]

i used hot glue to fill gaps to keep my hissers inside, since the babies are teeny. it worked really well! just a suggestion.

[@telesto1234]

Hi try smearing the edge with butter or grease instead of water

[@LunaHusky805]

I recommend putting some painters tape on the door edge. Then you can remove the tape from the door.

[@jacobhoward7288]

Let's see a Roach Guy room tour! Not enough KZbin videos about roach keeping, some species are near impossible to find info on.

[@ess2870]

Liquid fabric softener mixed with water makes the BEST anti-silicone mixture.

[@nutsy6019]

those springtail looking bugs are springtails, springtails have a wide range of shapes and sizes

[@sassyfamilie]

Hi my friend, i was thinking...is oil not a better option instead off (soap) water? Oil can not dry up...right? Just a idee i had😅❤

[@shsd7579]

if you want them to grow faster you should keep them in the smaler enclosure for now most insects that live in groups liek this (cockroaches, isopods etc) actually reproduce more and faster when they have denser population so 6 isopods in smal pot will reach 100 isopods faster then 6 in a large enclosure aquarimax pets has talked about it before if youre intressted in looking it up

[@TheDarkDen]

I'm fine as long as they reproduce, don't really care about the speed :D

[@tracybowling1156]

Petko, that really was an excellent idea with silicone. It worked out in the end. So don't worry. Dont feel bad.

[@alexverner.]

the bugs er a sp of springtalis / Shiny Lepidocyrtus😉

[@mariestubbs4606]

What gorgeous colour roaches these are great vid Petko ....

[@bingsballyhoo711]

A local artist may be interested in those exoskeletons?

[@snakekidJD]

Vasaline works beter on the glass youbdont want it to stick to. Or masking/painters tape.

[@MOONOVERMIAMI]

Hello great video information Petcko

[@poleleee]

Maybe those bugs are a larger species of springtail, i have sole in my terrariums and i haven't get any problem with those

[@Sirlie08]

They are so pretty✨️✨️

[@filipkral8678]

i think these "bugs" are just bigger species of springatails or some kind of Lepismatidae.

[@antsmands]

Very enjoyable content!

[@crazyidiot5309]

I was wondering in a different video why you called what looked like a Pill Bug.... these young look kinda like pill bugs. Do they roll up?

[@Rc4mobilearcade]

I need an advice for my curly hair, the abdomen is shrinking and is refusing to eat will he be okay

[@darrellh.9680]

What about using wax on the edge instead of water?

[@ChantalsCritters]
