I’ve used needle and thread And low temp glue guns for larger species before. it was just a bit of a shock today having never dealt with such a small ooth. I bought these as nymphs so when two adult females showed up with an ooth in one container it took me by surprise lol. I’ll have to try the...

Thank you!

I was curious how everyone attaches there small ooths? I received a couple Oxypilus gillonae today and they’re both hopefully mated females.

I bought 6 giant African mantis (sphrodromantis sp.) from him And I couldn't be happier. He's very knowledgable and a great guy to deal with. They all arrived happy and healthy and the packaging couldn't have been better. I was so happy with the order that I bought a pair of hierodula venosa...
