Fianlly caught one ooth hatching. For some reason it looks similar to roahces hatching from ootheca.

You're right, very similar to roaches hatching out lol. Thanks for sharing bro!

 
Thanks Shaik, yeah don't know why the hatching sight looks just like the roaches, i waited till they all emerged to make sure no roaches :lol: only kidding. This species doesn't hatch out very fast though and stay near the ootheca for a long time, took me a good hour to photograph the entire sequence. Very similar to the Acanthops sp. ooth which just hatched out for me recently, but appear to be a smaller species.

 
Great pics as always. Thanks for sharing Yen.
