A female German cockroach carries an egg capsule containing around 40 eggs. She drops the capsule prior to hatching. Development from eggs to adults takes 3-4 months. Cockroaches live up to a year. The female may produce up to eight egg cases in a lifetime; in favorable conditions, it can produce 300-400 offspring. Other species of cockroach, however, can produce an extremely high number of eggs in a lifetime, but only needs to be impregnated once to be able to lay eggs for the rest of its life.
Female American cockroaches produce egg cases and carry them protruding from the tip of the abdomen for about two days. Egg cases are then generally placed on a surface in a hidden location. Egg cases are 3/8 inches long, brown, and purse shaped. Immature cockroaches emerge from egg cases in 6 to 8 weeks and require 6 to 12 months to mature. Adult cockroaches can live up to one year, during which females produce an average of 150 young.
Oriental cockroach females (more numerous than males) carry the egg capsule 12 hours to 5 days and deposit them in a sheltered location near or within a food supply at a warm, sheltered spot. Females produce 1 to 18 capsules, each containing up to 16 eggs. Eggs hatch in about 60 days and nymphs develop in about one year. Adult females live 1 to 6 months.

How long does pregnancy lasts in cockroach?
Baby cockroaches may appear in anywhere from 24-300 days. The exact number of days depends upon the particular cockroach species. The time from the laying of the eggs to the emerging of the babies properly is called cockroach 'gestation'.Specifically, the female takes two days in which to create an egg case and fill it with eggs. With most cockroaches, the case will be put somewhere the mother-to-be considers safe. It's only in a few species, such as with the German cockroach [Blattella germanica], that the female keeps the case on her body, attached to the abdomen.The colors and lengths of the cases vary with the species. For example, the American cockroach [Periplaneta americana] makes a dark brown case that's about 1/3 inches long. American cockroach babies hatch in 24-38 days.The brown banded [Supella longipalpa] cockroach makes a light red brown case that's about 1/4 inches long. Brown banded cockroach babies hatch in about 70 days.The German cockroach [Blattella germanica] makes a brown case that's no more than 1/2 inches long. German cockroach babies hatch in about a month.The Oriental cockroach [Blatta orientalis] makes a dark red brown base that's about 1/2 inches long. Oriental cockroach babies hatch in about 300 days.
