Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches. Buy Adults, Juveniles.

Originally from the island of Madagascar, Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches are one of the largest cockroaches: adults can reach 2 to 3 inches in size. Hissing cockroaches are often kept as pets or offered as feeder insects. Hissers have a relatively long life span and, under optimal conditions, they can live up to 5 years! Unlike most cockroaches, hissing cockroaches don’t have wings, but are excellent climbers, including on smooth glass. Therefore, they should be kept in an enclosure with a lid to ensure they do not escape. They make their homes in rotting logs and wood and should be fed by providing fresh pieces of vegetables in their enclosure. Buy Hissing Cockroaches from us today!

    Ordered these right before weather became unexpectedly cold, but the hissers still arrived healthy and active. There was a nice mix of male and female insects, as well as a handful of nymphs. I've already put in an order for more to get a colony going, very happy with this purchase!

    100% happy with my order. First box was supposed to arrive 3-5 days give or take, but it got held up in the mail somewhere ended up being close to two weeks, so they sent a replacement box just in case! I ordered large thinking it would be that 'generic large' that you see in pet stores, you know the ones that say large but are only a half-inch, but I got full-blown adults! And a healthy mix of males and females at that. Arrived healthy and alive :) and you honestly can't beat the price

    100% happy, I ordered large and was thinking that the large would be juvi's but they were full-blown adults! Healthy mix of males and females. Not only that, the shipping was supposed to take 3-5 days I believe, and I think the first box got lost for a good 1.5-2 weeks, they insisted on sending a replacement :) (USPS doing not theirs, probably a mix between covid and Christmas made the delay)

    I have been ordering Madagascar hissing cockroaches from Flukers for years. Insects have always arrived alive and in great shape. I have never been disappointed. Flukers is the best if you want Madagascar hissing roaches.

    Very creepy but ourBeardie loved them. They came live and well. Actually I forgot I ordered them and got a freaky surprise when I opened the box.
