The first animal that conceived her offspring in space was a cockroach named Nadezhda. She was one of many cockroaches on board the Russian satellite Foton-M 3 (September 14 - 26, 2007) After they were returned to earth, the one named Nadezhda became the first earth creature to produce young that had been conceived in space. Her 33 kids were healthy though their carapace had darkened in colour much earlier, in comparison with natural-condition cockroaches who develop that darker tone later in their life cycle. But the rest of the conditions and capacities of the cockroaches remained normal.Later it was reported that Nadezhda's grandchildren, born to one of the space-born insects, had given birth on earth to normal cockroaches, with a life cycle and development pretty similar to that of any other cockroach. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadezhda_(cockroach).

Here is a picture of Nadezhda and her 33 children.
