In desperate need of small Lateralis roaches.

[Frogsong]

Hi,

I'm looking for a source for Lateralis roaches. I need some smaller ones for new baby bearded dragons. My local pet store has run out and I can't find a source for them anywhere. Does anyone know where in the US I can find some small Lateralis?

Thank you,

Debra

Debra,

Check out Aaron Pauling.com . He's a little pricier than some private sellers but a great guy to do business with.

I'll PM you some info to find "possible" private sellers.

I use Feeder Source. Always arrive in great condition.

Thank you!! You all were a huge help. I have found what I was looking for. Thank you!

Well, unfortunately, I went with feeder source. I ordered 1000 lateralis. And the box arrived with nothing but some egg crate and roach food, but not a single roach in the box. :/

WOW, I've NEVER had that happen and out of 1,000 I've had maybe 5 DOA, and I've been getting my roaches from them for the past 2 years. Contact Josh and I'm sure he'll take care of that.

I emailed him as soon as I got the empty package 2 days ago, but haven't heard a word. The roaches I ordered are the smallest ones he sells. He sent them in a box with a screen that they must have been able to squeeze out of. They escaped somehow, because there weren't any in there. I think he needs to rethink his shipping method for the tiny ones.

Just an update. I still have not heard a word from Feeder Source about this issue. I filed a Paypal dispute.

I wish you would give Josh a chance to respond. They've been at Repticon this weekend in two locations, I'm sure Josh is going to take care of this. I hate it that this happened to you, but I've never been let down with Feedersource.

I just received my order from Feedersource for medium and xtra small Turkish roaches and they arrived in perfect condition………as always. The tiny ones are in the tube container & medium are in the cricket box, plus it was sealed in another cardboard box. Like I said, I’m sorry this happened to you, but I don’t want others to have a bad taste with Feedersource.

This is not how mine were packed. Mine came in the live cricket box all by itself. Not inside another box and not inside a tube. I finally got in touch with someone named Nathan at feeder source. Apparently my email to them went into their spam folder. They are shipping me another order.

I also had a few other bug supply items, maybe that's why it was in a extra box. I'm sure if you ask them to put the bug box in another carton and tape it up they would. Also the tube has the xtra small roaches.

[Frogsong]

He said he would put my roaches in the tube. I ordered the 1/4 inch lateralis. So hopefully they won't be escaping this time. I'll keep you posted.

I knew they would make good on this. Feedersource is a great company to work with, I also see them at all the shows I attend. I'm just happy things are working out for you.
