Hi everybody. My old username was executor of fruit flies, but I found that too cumbersome and stupid to keep using it. Anyway:
My ghost is laying an ooth as I type this. However, I never observed actual mating. I know she's been mounted by 3 different males, but I never saw them "connect." Does anyone with experience know how long ghost mating lasts(the connecting part)? I'm hoping I just missed it, since I may have an infertile ooth.
Also, I plan to incubate it in the container pictured below, except with moist sphagnum moss at the bottom. Any comments for improvement? Like replacing the mesh lid with a lid without mesh, just holes, to keep more humidity in?
