i've got 3 Blepharopsis mendica oothecae at the moment, will give you guys a shout when it hatches

 
Just paid a visit to my friend - both her females mismoulted, which desulted in deformation of their wings. Plus, both males died before mating...

Couldn't be worse...

Dang, that's a shame. Does your mate have another male? i could do with one right now (last one died)

 
Nah - these two were her last ones, so a great shame all the way - and of course it would be inappropriate to sell the females with deformed wings, which render them almost impossible for a male to mount...

So - poo happens :mellow:

Well, but I still have mine, and they are sweet! I wish I had a good camera, because today they were practicing acrobatics - and they made a mantid pyramid! One was hanging from the mesh screen, and then one jumped on it! Then the encumbered Blepharopsis jumped on another's back - hehehe, that was quite a feat for 5th instar! Surprisingly - there is less and less hostility between them with each passing day - they stopped having fights, they do not display threat pose - nothing, just pure peace.

Maybe thats because I keep them in a pot, our English teacher said that the pot can make people lucid and serene - maye the same happened to them?
