[QUOTE="Borya, post: 50693, member: 360"] In 2006 my friends from zoo told me that M.rel ooths don't need a cold period, so I just put a container on a bookshelf and wait. The ooth being layed in the beginning of september started to hatch on 22 of december. The nymphs had been getting out for next three or four days, about 30-50 each day (the ooth was huge). Totally, about 150 hatched. Maybe because everyone is just trying to imitate natural winter period without asking themselves whether it is necessary for this species or not :) . Does anybody ever tried to incubate ooths at room temperature? [/QUOTE]
