[QUOTE="Mystymantis, post: 338548, member: 9416"] I must have the worst luck.... I put the male in yesterday and finally this morning he got on her and she didn't freak out too much, just a little. But then I check on them and guess what! She is laying an egg case! And I didn't see them connect ever.. at least I don't think so. If they did connect it was like for only a minute but I don't think they ever did. And that wouldn't be long enough to fertilize right? Because normally mantises mate for quite a while, well or at least stay on each other for a while... Strike two for infertile egg cases. Now I must get the male out of there so she doesn't eat him.
