Cockroaches #2: Madagascar Hissing Cockroach


While I was reading up on cockroaches I came across a particular species that is kept as a pet.

Why would you want a pet cockroach? Especially one that hisses when disturbed. I guess the females carry their eggs around inside and then give live birth. That is rare in insects. Bleh. At least they don't fly like some of the ones I encountered in south Texas. Those are the worst.
