It's in Melbourne mate, I am there every week or two and can thouroughly reccomend him. Tell Brian I sent you and he's sure to overcharge you He sends roaches out once a week and everything is available by phone order. Give him a try he is a great guy

Zoe, it's not a shop but a private home, you can visit and pick up your stuff but you have to phone and arrange time etc. All contact details are on the site.

Wattsho, I'd get two seperate lots and get 3/4 size for feeding immediately and winged adults for breeding. I set up another breeding colony just a couple of weeks ago and already they are breeding like flies. You do need to allow time to grow 'em on though and the little bubs are great for metamorphed frogs which I think you said you had or were getting? Pin head crickets are hell to keep for any length of time so when I was breeding the White Lipped Trees I fed 'the metamorphs almost exclusively on new born roaches and it proved very successful. The adult frogs loved the adult roaches too and the best ones to use for this purpose are juvies just prior to winging. Hope this helps buddy

Thanks Tokyo! Thanks Africa too, I hope turts like em too, i think they will, they arwe woodies right? i find them under the woodchip in the garden sometimes, turtles are swallowing them befor they hit the watyer...almost. yes am getting some gree tree frogs soon but due to sporodic avail im not sure what size yet so best be prepared eh. btw, buy a new toothbrush lmao
