Darn! You have to separate yours or you will only have one pair as adults. They would be a super couple though...I had a female-female cannabalism this morning but no play dead

A little bigger than L6, but mine grow a bit as the instar progresses
I made a mistake
This female was a male in the female cage and I think he is only L6, not sure though
At least I have a male over L5 lol

Well, I'm sad to report that my female b. mendica that produced all of the fertile ooths died today. She was about 10 months old and molted to an adult about 6 months ago. I don't know what the average life for a female b. mendica is. I was hoping she would live long enough for the first of her offspring to molt to adults. Her sister is still doing well and continues to lay infertile ooths.
My female (mama) b. mendica was amazing! Between 10/12/11 - 2/12/12 (last date is approximate as I didn't initially notice the ooth), she laid a total of 17 ooths. Twelve of the first fifteen ooths hatched. The first, sixth and thirteenth ooths did not hatch. I think I know why the first and sixth ooths did not hatch, but I'm not sure what happened with the thirteenth. It will be interesting to see if the last two ooths hatch.
