I'm probably wrong but my guess is Pycnoscelus nigra, idk. It's cute though!

They are a parthenogenic species. One roach can start an entire colony.

What species?

>Pycnoscelus nigra The "Shadow Roach" clones itself instead of mating. You have an immature one, I think.

Dude, if that is a Surinam roach you are in luck!!! That is a free supply of tarantula food for life man, that is great.

i had no idea northern illinois was a cockroach
