Budwing ooth hatched last night. Woke up to a ton of them in their container and it's still hatching! There has to be 150 in there by now. It's so funny to see one lone nymph just plow through a bunch of them like a linebacker. I think I should start to transfer them to a bigger container soon.

Sorry about the quality. I really need to find my USB memory stick for my other camera.

 
No problem. I'll place an ad as soon as they molt to L-2.

I just transferred 2/3 to a bigger container. Took forever. These guys are jumpy.

 
I know the feeling. I always hatch into a larger container to avoid transferring them when they are so tiny and jumpy as all get out.
I did that the last couple of ooths and my hatches were kinda small. I opted for the 32oz this time to see what happens. That was in the summer though and my mom had the AC cranked. I think that played a part in it. Next ooth is definitely going to hatch in something bigger.
