Gross Pet? Giant Burrowing Cockroaches – Crawly and family

Written by scottology on February 21, 2010 – 8:59 pm -

People still watch the video I made over a year ago showing our pet cockroach Crawly. And people often ask if I still have her and how she is. Well, here is the long overdue return of Crawly, and she’s brought along her offspring. It was a pretty big surprise when the baby cockroaches appeared. We had already had Crawly for over six months so either they gestate eggs for a long time or they are the sort of animal that can suspend the development of their young until the time is right. Or it was a virgin birth. OMG I have the cockroach messiah in my house. I shouldn’t have sprayed those bugs at the door, they were clearly the three wise cockroaches bringing gifts. And for those who always insist on saying this isn’t the biggest breed of cockroach (they always go on with some shit about the Madagascar Hissing Cockroach) www.abc.net.au Music is this video is by Vortex www.youtube.com My shirts on redbubble www.redbubble.com And here are the cafepress shops: www.cafepress.com.au This is my blogtv channel: www.blogtv.com Stalk me on Twitter! twitter.com Read my blog! angryaussie.wordpress.com Send me hate mail!

California (tarantula) Dreaming tinyfi

Written by scottology on November 24, 2009 – 9:57 am -

California has many species of tarantulas. Many, possibly most, are not even described by science yet. I am not sure what this species is, beyond pretty. In this video my buddy Steven and I use a tarantula recovery technique commonly known as flooding. The advantage to this method over digging is that it is much less invasive than digging, basically leaving the burrow almost immediately available for another animal to live in. Flooding does not always work. If the soil is too porous or the …
