Anyone know of a good supplier of discoid roaches?

I have decided to start a colony of discoid roaches. My chams will eat these guys and I would love to get away from stinky crickets, but need a start up colony.

Also, can you feed pygmies roaches? Don't the roaches burrow into the dirt in the pyg terrariums? If you have some experience with this please help.
 
PM JohnnyD for some roaches though he doesn't sell Adults.

I ordered adults from buydubiaroaches.com
 
The pygmies will eat roaches but they will normally burrow before they can get eaten. Aaronpauling.com is good as well.
 
I have some large ones if you are interested. they are just about to become adults.

Anywho, the pygmies will eat them if you put them in small portion cups that are pushed into the dirt a bit. Lateralis roaches dont burrow and I believe they have already established themselves in Florida, sooo...
 
If you are in Boca you are not too far from Ben Siegel on Hillsboro Road west of I95. That's where I got my Discoids to start my colony. I think I started with twenty nymphs just to start up and learn, and have about 200 now in just a couple of months.
