[QUOTE="sporeworld, post: 165252, member: 2687"] An interesting thought, indeed. I've got to think that using an incubator MUST be better, ASSUMING we know how to properly dial it in. I'm curious... do you cut open the ooths after a certain time? If so, have you noticed them too dry? Too wet? to unfertilized? Whay are they not hatching? Are their dried or molded nymphs/eggs inside? Of ooths sent to me from others, I'm almost certain I've had more hatch IN transit, than after. But from my own stock (that I KNOW were fertilized, and didn't undergo any extremes from shipping), it's darn near 100% success. Ghosts, Creos, Gongy's, Iris, Chinese, Europeans, Statilia, Mios, ... and on and on. So what would be a good experiment? To take a really long Creo ooth, cut it into a number of peices, and put each in a different environment? Hard to get controls... [/QUOTE]
