Blepharopsis mendica hatching.

[MikhailsDinos]

One of my ooth has been hatching over the last 3 days. I have 52 nymphs now over the course of a 3 day hatch.

After the second day of the ooth hatching. My male had it in him to mate again for the 4th time.

Wow. Those L3 pics are great.

I hate to say it - but little mantids can actually be quite cute.
