Well,I had them in the same container for about 6-8 hours and then moved them to the cup. In the container, with the other mantises, about 22 died. Now there are a bunch hanging from the ooth still. They've been hanging there since yesterday. Should I help them down or now? Or should I have them fall natrally?
Out of the 50 that I put in cups yesterday. During the night, 1 died completely, 6 are barely living (They are kinda just twitching but I'm not going to throw them away untill they die completely), and the rest are living strong. I also have some ones still up on the egg sac that I asked you about earlier in the post. So altogether, I have 44 healthy ones today.
I'm going to mist them now, and I will mist them tonite. I will also find some sticks either tommorow or today. I'm going to start feeding them tommorow 4 fruit flies each. And I think I will start breeding my own fruit flies. What do you keep your fruit flies in? How do you feed them to your mantises when they are so small?
Also, when they are molting, how are you suppost to spray the cup without disrupting the molting process? And how do I know when they are done molting?
By the way, what do you meant when you say L1 nymphs or L4 nymphs?
Thanks!
