Roaches are a great reptile food.  Hissing roaches make great pets. My favorite is Blatta Laterallis.  They don't climb or fly and they breed like crazy.  I have listed nutrional info for each roach so that you can pick the one that is right for the nutrional needs of your reptiles. I have also compared this to crickets and mealworms.   The nutritional analysis was completed New Jersey Feed Laboratory, Inc.
