Ghosts hatched!

MAN these guys are tiny! Had to take some pics so I could see what they really look like... to my naked eye, they pretty much just look like ants.

They look like little tiny fire ants! Awesome!

i'm not sure what those are, but they don't look like ghosts.. ghosts look like they got a little nipple on their head. I'm sure someone else will ID those for you

I was thinking they look a lot like creobroter nymphs...thought I was just mistaken...

DOH! Looked at the writing on the package and they wrote "c.elongata(long)" so these are Thai Flower Mantids. DOH! The ghosts haven't hatched yet. I recieved an ooth of each and for some reason figured the bigger ooth would have been the ghosts.

Thanks for the correction guys. They are still nifty.

Creobroter nymphs are still pretty awesome. I love the way they look freshly hatched!

Awesome looking nymphs, even if they aren't ghosts. This is what a ghost nymph looks like.

Adorable! I'm a sucker for those big dewy eyes.

Great pics - okstrat and more_rayne.
