Live Insects Dwarf Hissing Cockroach Elliptorhina chopardi, 10 Count
Description
Dwarf hissers do not require a lot of room and will do well kept in a 10 gallon tank or similar enclosure. They need adequate ventilation as well as a secure lid, as hissing roaches can easily climb glass. 75-85 degrees is their preferred temperature range. Dwarf hissers prefer temperatures over 80 and should never be kept below 70 degrees. Acceptable humidity for dwarf hissing cockroaches is around 50%+. Hissers originate from Madagascar and can live comfortably at higher humidity, and will thrive between 60%-70%. Keep coconut fiber damp and mist regularly. At time of sale they are eating fresh fruit and Josh's Frogs Roach Rations, with hydrated water crystals (or watering gel) available at all times. They enjoy a variety of fruits and vegetables such as carrots, sweet potatoes, celery, bananas, apples, and oranges.
