Anyone ever see this before???

I've owned dubias for a while, never once saw this(dubias are live bearing, and I've watched them birth before). You think its hard to get a snake to sit still for a photo, try a roach :P

Re: Anyone ever see this before???

Maybe it's a parasite.. it looks like it grew to be the full size of her body and when it couldn't fit maybe the roach some how shoved it out.. or maybe it was just done growing and is coming out on its own... however I don't see any way that roach would live long with something like that in it.. how would it eat? what if that's it's stomach O.o

Dubias lay eggs then store the eggs in a "pouch " til they hatch z month later.
