Ghost ooth hatch

[Mantid Z.]

So this morning I look into my cup full of ghost ooths and I see that ooth has hatched. 8 have hatched, 1 stuck in the ooth and 1 stuck in a worm string. I was wondering if more are going to hatch?

Possibly, there could be stragglers.

Which ooth was this in the series? if first it must need more misting.

No, humidity stays at around 60-70% I mist once a day. I think it’s because I moved it from its original angle.

That is fine conditions. It maybe just wasn’t fully fertile.

Orientation of ooth ime doesn’t matter, they need a lot more than gravity to break free from the ooth(I’ve hatched polyspilota, tenodera, and mantis just by leaving them on their sides). Maybe this was a smaller ooth or some eggs dried up before
