Thorin_the_roach Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 these are the four that are in question they were all sold as common hissing cockroaches or Gromphadorhina portentosa, but look very different. Would anyone care to identify them? thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where'd you get them? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shon2 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 The one in the second to last pic looks just like my male, who is a confirmed hybrid (They were being sold as “giant island leaf roaches” at Petco, but after calling the distributor, they were identified as gromphadorhina portentosa and gromphadorhina oblongonota hybrids with possible others mixed in as well haha) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
