Message: <blockquote data-quote="Hisserdude" data-source="post: 73357" data-attributes="member: 4652">Hmm, size and habitat does sound good for Eurycotis, but the coloration and overall shape of the roach itself does not match Eurycotis. I am pretty sure it's a Periplaneta. And yeah, who could hate hissers? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Thanks, they are adorable! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> Yes I really love my P.discoidalis, they are beautiful! My mom feels the same way lol, the only roaches I'm not allowed to keep are Blattella germanica and any Periplaneta species, those guys came inside all the time when we lived in FL!</blockquote>
