Wouldn't you need to be alive to care for them? Lol, jk, Im sorry, I just couldnt resist

Awesome pics, it would be great if they were introduced to culture!

 

[maybon]

Very cool species, did you raise them from an ootheca?

 

[gripen]

To answer some questions these guys have been breed and are in culture in Europe.

if you need to know more about them you can talk to chrisp and he can tell you that this is a species that is very hard to raise and have to have a very high temp and humidity if I remember what he told me!

Add me to your list, Bartek. This is one of the species I want to document.

chrisp has been raising these and you can ask him yourself but he will not sell those that he has!
