Ghost mantis ootheca

[Avocatious]

One of my female ghost mantids recently laid an ooth.

Look @itzjustjeff

Gratz on the ooth. Is it fertile?

 

[Avocatious]

Tbh I don't know. But I have two fertile ooths that itzjustjeff gave me. We'll see how that goes

 

[Mantid Z.]

Good luck!!

 

[Mantis Lady]

You have a beautiful ghost. I never had a green one.

 

[itzjustjeff]

Beautiful!!

So, 3 months later, is the ooth hatching or nearly ready to hatch you think? I'm not sure how long ghost ooths take....

Ghost ooths take a month to a month and a half to hatch... sounds like its a dud.

If it didn't hatch by now, sure. But someone revived a 3 mo. old thread about a ghost ooth. Wondering if it hatched or not from the OP....
