Pseudoglomeris magnifica (Emerald Green Roach)

6ct nymphs

These are shipping end of October when I have reserves out and I can ship due to hurricane Helene and being in western NC

Nymphs take 6-9 months to sexually mature. The males will mature about a month before the females and gain some beautiful wings. They can’t fly, but they can glide. Once that happens, the males only live about 6 months roughly. The females retain sperm and only need to technically mate once although I’ve seen mine mate more than once. They mate butt to butt. The moms then are pregnant around 60 days. They carry the babies under them for about a month. I’ve seen a few carry the babies for the moms and they aren’t old enough to breed yet themselves. Nymphs can climb walls day 1.

The diet that I provide mine is as follows; organic bee pollen granules sourced out of NJ and CA. High protein salmon powder mix that’s made fresh by a friend. Then I provide a slice of apple occasionally. I don’t provide a water dish but instead I spray the walls daily because that’s how they drink off of them. Once a week I wet the bottom of the bin. I have 12 holes with mesh covering over them. They have heat pads on a thermostat that turns off automatically. That is not required until they are of breeding ages. So for the first 6-9 months just room temp is fine. I provide them with a lot of lichen sticks and bark pieces that over lap so that they can find hiding spots. I keep a piece of thick moss inside the enclosure to keep humidity consistent with the heat pads. 

These are hands down the most beautiful roach you’ll ever see. If you are just getting them to have your own colony then 6 is plenty. If you are buying them to start a colony to sell from, I’d recommend you add 6 in again around the 4 month mark of having the first 6. Chose whichever shipping you’d want when they ship. I will have some ready to go by fall
