what do you feed them??
Right now I'm feeding them dog food carrots and spinach...you can feed pretty much anything (from what I've heard) if you're considering getting some I really recommended the cockroach forum..it's a little slower than this forum, but they're really helpful!
Edit: Emzotics roach care on YouTube helped me so so so so much! If you're looking into them @tacotaco she's super helpful

That is so cool. I didn't picture them even looking like that! Are they dirty?

Maybe I missed it, but did you name them?

Edit: If you ever want to make to make a permanent background I'd youtube how to set up a vivarium or similar. Expansion foam works well and critters can't climb it.

Yes, I did.. SJ and Warrior btw their names are a family joke....and I came to realize that there names are basically social justice warrior...but I didn't mean to do that lol
I'm thinking about removing the background all together and putting like a paper on the back as a background

Can't climb behind it I mean lol. Cute names. I use gift wrapping paper on the back of some of my cages if I just want some color on the back if you can't find a fish background you like.

I decided to take it out all together, and for now I just set it on the back, I think the issue was no dark hiding spaces, but I couldnt put anything to hide in, because if the 3ish inch background, I took it out, and had enough room to add some hides and make more dark spaces!

This is pretty cool! Those roaches look like they've got a pretty sweet setup.
