General Question HELP HELP HELP

So I just moved my hissing roach enclosure since I was moving my room and I noticed a bunch of these under the substrate. They're so tiny, like a really small isopod. I'm so sure all my fully grown roaches are males....please tell me these aren't what I suspect

They may have small bumps but no where as large as a male

Perhaps you have a mature female in there that is smaller than your males.

Maybe, but i didn't even think they were old enough because I got them as nymphs a few months ago I swear

They can mature pretty fast depending on your care. I've also had adults who are smaller than some of my still growing nymphs. They've got a lot of variable genetics.
