Common Name: Giant Deaths-Head Cockroach
Scientific Name: Blaberus cranifer
Size: Nymph
Status: Captive Bred
Food : Cockroaches will eat a range of fruit, veg, cereals and kitchen scraps. I feed all my cockroaches on my dried 'cockroach mix' (muesli, cat biscuits, fish pellets and bran - mixed together), plus a little fruit and veg. I generally feed the cockroaches once or twice a week.
Very similar to the Deaths-Head cockroach but larger, with darker markings. Approximate adult size 6cm. A useful live food for larger spiders and reptiles but also a pretty and interesting pet cockroach. |
