Er, if the ooth hatches out nymphs then it means it's a fertile ooth.

Infertile ooths won't hatch anything out.

Pathogenic you mean.

It is 99% most likely not going to happen. The only pathogenic species that this occurs in are Brunneria borealis, as there are no known males.

Its parthenogenetic, people...come on now...

 

[spawn]

It's parthenogenic. Pathogenic means to cause disease.
