I found this thing on my black light in Glamis, California. Coolest colored cockroach I've seen.

I agree, it's an Arenivaga. I really, really, really want some females so I can breed them...
Current Species:
Camponotus fragilis
Novomessor cockerelli
Pogonomyrmex montanus
Pogonomyrmex rugosus
Manica bradleyi

Would that be as food source for your ants or you find them intriguing enough to keep as pets?

Ta da! *spirit fingers*

Camponotus vicinus, Crematogaster 1, Crematogaster 2, Formica francoeuri, *, *, Myrmecocystus testaceus, Novomessor cockerelli, Pheidole hyatti, Pogonomyrmex californicus, Pogonomyrmex rugosus, Solenopsis invicta
I want them as pets. These roaches don't breed enough to use as feeders. Actually, native CA roaches in general aren't great feeders because they're so hard to breed.
Current Species:
Camponotus fragilis
Novomessor cockerelli
Pogonomyrmex montanus
Pogonomyrmex rugosus
Manica bradleyi
The roach looks really cool. Wouldn't mind owning a few.
I eventually found some females of these and started a journal for them here (http://www.formicult...eremoblatta-sp/).
