I have three females, one I have successfully mated three weeks after her final molt. It has been four weeks she is still eating and seems to be fine. This is my first time breeding mantids. I know he connected for a few hours. My question is how long should I expect it to take for her to lay her first ooth? Should I mate her again I have one male right now. I have one more female that is two weeks today after final molt. I was thinking of waiting a bit longer before trying with her. I am also wondering if I should put the male in a different room. Thanks for any tips and I advice I can get.

 
The species is Tenodera sinensis, she seems fine and I am making sure she is warm and misted. I have raised the humidity a little and I have lots of sticks and perches for her. She is eating fine. She does seem to be a little more restless tonight. Her overall health seems fine.
