Pallid Roach
Phoetalia pallida
These roaches are much smaller and have a softer exoskeleton than Dubias. We use the babies to feed hatchling crested geckos and the adults as feeders for mantids and adult crested geckos.
They can eat almost anything - we feed ours on vegetable peelings. A very prolific species, and very easy to keep.
If keeping a colony you will need a heat mat set to 20.C on one side of their enclosure.
Be aware they can climb glass and plastic so you will need a barrier of Vaseline around the rim of their tub to prevent escapes.

"Visiting The Reptile Room was an amazing experience and I learned a lot.
I still feel like I was in Narnia.
It is amazing. Took us ages to get me out of there!
Highly recommend to everyone."
