You are correct sir. They are exoskeletons so they shed to grow. I have one right now that's close to 3" long. I'm kinda curious to know what the largest one of it's class is. I heard if you gave them pure oxygen they can grow bigger. Not sure why that would matter but one day I'd like to set up a small lab and start experimenting with different stuff like that.
Large cage with oxygen tanks as an air supply vs. regular cage (10 gallon) with regular room air and see which roaches grow bigger, faster. I also heard they'll only grow as big as their environmet like goldfish. I'm curious to know if that's true as well.
Do you want some? I have too many.
