Need help Iding my roaches

[Indiana Herps and Inverts]

About a year or two ago now I bought what I was told were b. giganteus nymphs from a guy on a discord server. Now that some of them have matured however I'm not so sure they are b. giganteus. All of the adults I have are not over 2.5 inches when the other stuff I've found says they should be 3 inches. If anyone can help me out with figuring out if they are giganteus or not it'd be appreciated.

Alright, thanks. Any way to tell what the other part of the hybrid might be out of curiosity?

B. fusca has been suggested, and then B. fusca isn't actually a species, so who knows. Blaberus species id are in flux. Even recently read these might be a color variation of B. craniifer. Your guess is as good as mine.

Rip, well thanks for the help! Wish i'd of known more about buying online when I got them so I might've not gotten scammed. Oh well, live and learn.

Can we get more pics of the adults? While craniifer x "fusca" hybrids are super common and can look like this, some giganteus do have pronotum markings like the one pictured in your OP.
