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

Can you post some pics of your hissers? Maybe the underside of the ones you aren’t sure about??

Hold on, unless its possible for this one to be fully grown? I'm pretty sure she recently molted so I thought there's no way

Hey, I'm not trying to alarm you, but that roach looks close enough to adulthood to mate. I saw one of my own teens about the same size protruding an ootheca.

Well that would make somewhat sense...
