Possible to tell if these are Parcoblatta?

Vulgaris

Fifth Instar
A friend in Georgia captured these last night in her chicken pen. The photo is not great, but could they be Parcoblatta of sorts? She says they are large, maybe around an inch

Thanks for the ID man! I was not expecting it to species level.

She is curious about telling male from female (which I do not know either) so she said she might get better pics in the next few days (both of us have the same kind of camera:)

 
Females are wider and thicker than males, with shorter wings proportionally. On the end of the abdomen, males have two sternites while females have one large one.
