chinese hatched

[Collin s]

2 weeks ago i went out into this field behind my house and found 4 chinese mantis ooths, well one hatch early this morning. right now i have them in groups of 10, i have about 40ish but i let about 70-80 good back out into the field.

sorry the pics aren't the best, my camera wouldn't focus that well

the ooth was the biggest out of the 4, it was just smaller than a golfball.

Thanks, I hope the rest get a lot so I can put more back outside then, keep a few to keep the gene pool flowing.
