Received a group of Blaberus giganteus(5 adults, several large nymphs, maybe 10 smaller nymphs). All I can say is man these are big uns! I think some are close to 3.5 inches(90mm) though I have not measured them. What is the biggest giganteus anyone has seen?
Female.
About 3.25 or a little more.
Some of the adults+nymph.
For those who've been keeping these do non roach people think these are large? To me they seem almost too big to be bugs. But I always here people talking about roaches(probably P. americana) that are "as big as their hand" or whatever.
