Thats the egg case, it is extracted back into the female.

If i were you, I wouldn't use any substrate for the Lobster roaches at all, much easier to clean that way.

Derek,

I've purchased all of my roaches from Bruce Gaudet of "Bruces's Feeders", http://home.earthlink.net/~bruce1143/index.html. In fact I just purchased 200 for $22 shipped w/heatpack. This is my second order from him and I was very happy with the first. I need more because my geckos love these suckers!

There are others selling roaches on kingsnake as well, though they aren't as cheap.
