[QUOTE="MortBird, post: 347734, member: 13085"] I've recently come across a European mantis ootheca and may have another one on the way. I've found mixed responses on whether or not European mantids [I]need[/I] a diapause to survive incubation, so I'm wondering- can I put this ootheca in a ventilated jar at room temperature, and wait for hatching? Or should I put the jar outside (in a house plant, maybe?) so that it can receive it's natural diapause? Thanks for any and all help :) [/QUOTE]
