Certain types can, some cant. So probably the ones you chased couldnt fly.

im sure that when a roach reaches maturity its wings appear and it starts flying

yep exactly right Daniel!

Sources: Experienced them myself at my house in Japan!
(I mean in like keeping eggs and crushing or feeding them to cps when they reach maturity :twisted:) :lol:

Edit:
Sorry forgot to put dis in, SOME ROACH SPECIES DOESN'T GROW WINGS WHEN THEY REACH MATURITY!

Edit again!:
Don't instead of Doesn't

Roaches have hard shells, so probably not the best idea to feed to cp's. If you just leave them outside they will catch all they need!

Some cant roaches just dont fly, its not all about how mature one is. Although most flying ones are down to maturity, and wouldnt be stupid enough to land in a flytrap.
