Can Blatta lateralis (Rusty Reds) fly? Would they make good feeders for geckos or does someone else have a better non climber suggestion?
http://www.nyworms.com/turkistan_roach.htmTurkistan Roach
(Blatta lateralis)
Native to Asia and Africa. Non Climbing, Non Flying Species. Easy keepers and fast breeders.
Turkistan Roaches are commonly found in tropical areas, even some sections of the United States. Small and fast, they can move extremely quickly. They are smaller than Lobster Roaches, reaching about three quarters of an inch at maturity. Turkistan Roaches usually reach adulthood in 3 to 5 months and live for another 6 to 12 months after that.
Adult Blatta lateralis are easy to sex as only the adult males have wings. Non climbing and non flying, they make a great alternative choice for those who don't want to keep Lobster Roaches due to their climbing ability. Blatta lateralis are egg layers but breed as quickly, or even more so, than Lobster Roaches.
