How did you get into Roaches? LOL

Well, it started 2 years ago when I saw some hissers at a science and engineering day I went to for science club. I came home and I remember what my ma said to me when I asked if I could get some: "Ha, roaches? In this house? You know what they say: Them toenails are tough."
lol
So in January I convinced them to let me get 20 hissers to start breeding my own food, seeing as I was paying around $10 a week for crix. Over the summer they multiplied; then I attended my first reptile show in August and saw some orange head roaches at one of the back tables. I asked my mom if I could get them; she said no. However, by the next show in September I was allowed to purchase my first orange heads and discoid roaches. From here everything snowballed; I was trading out tons of hissers for lobster roaches, giant caves, everything. By October I had gone from 3-4 species to 20.

1. She's not a fan of the smaller ones but she likes the big ones you can handle. :P
2. There are over 4000 species of roaches, about 5 of which are serious pests and 5 that are area-dependent pests. :P

I dont know if I could hold one of them big ones. Maybe cuz they kinda dont look like roaches.

Does your big ones have names? LOL
