Zebra Feast!

Hi Everyone!

I know I already took shared some pictures of these guys, but they are so beautiful that I had to take some more! The other day I put about 18 small chunks of apple in their enclosure, and those 11 E.decipiens ate all the apple in under 45 minutes! Here's some pictures I snapped of them!

 These guys have been very fun to keep so far, and have to be one of the most marvelously patterned roaches in the hobby! The things I like most about these are that they are more disinclined to bite when handled, fight during feeding time, and are a lot calmer than their close relative Eurycotis lixa.

Once again, hope you guys enjoyed this post, and I'll see you guys next time! :)
