Just to inform that Invertebrate Dude has helped tremendously to get an ID on these roaches. Thank you! Based on the location, male to female size similarities, female ventral abdomen with short yellow hairs, also matching the description from the Perisphaerinae Revision Paper, he pointed out that he thought it is Perisphaerus punctatus. Now onto to get these established in the hobby. My colony is doing very well, and now I need to think about scaling up the enclosure. I like this setup a lot, its very practical and functions very well but it -

Quick update: TBH I haven't been seeing much activity from these roaches. I see then congregating but not feeding so I have been quite preoccupied, but today when I opened their enclosure here is what I found (almost had a heart attack at first sight!) Photo 1 Photo 2 Almost all of them molted ! yeay! -
The colony seems to be doing great ! Uncovering part of the Colony They are clearly more active at night but anytime of the the day, they congregate in two particular areas, not sure because of pheromones or what, but there is a type of leaf they like to stick to. As you can see, some are really plump 🥰 ready for winter 🍇
