Tarantulas and Spiders

Haha really?
Be careful, some people have allergic reactions to roaches.

Really!

And really? I didn't find anything on that...I guess I will have to be careful because of my shellfish allergies, though. I'll keep benidryl (sp?) on hand! I'll also take a video. :P They'll be sauteed with olive oil and spices.

Mostly with breathing. They develop over time and people have to use mask when cleaning the bins.

But...
One of the breeders opened a shop in FL. He had a contest to give away snakes to the person who could eat the most dubia. The guy died later that night. But I'm guessing he ate a very large amount.
I never saw if the roaches were what caused the death but that's what everything was leaning toward.
Happened about a year ago.

Yup, was reading about that. Personally, I don't think a quantity of anything live should be eaten...Just seem to be asking for trouble. I'll let you know if I die, lol.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/1...n_2192964.html Appearently he died as a result of "asphyxia due to choking and aspiration of gastric contents". So nothing to do with the actual ingestion of the roaches themself

Ah cool. I followed it for a couple of days then forgot all about it.

There are a couple threads on here about that incident too; it caused quite a stir

Crickets being purchased today...feeding time for octavius!!!!

I love how Meph completely fails to acknowledge my recent diatary intrigue.

He's clearly playing hard to get. ;)

My bug-eating ways are a total turn-on, I just know it.
