regards and thanx,

tier

edit: No, it is just a link, but I used the URL?!?!

 

[ThorEH]

Yes, that is the correct url... but you need to use the

button...

Beatiful Idolomorpha... But, do not post Idolomorpha pictures in my Gongylus thread Make a new one on Idolomorpha

Sorry, but it was just for mantida. Won't post another. Or should I delete it here?

Thank you again for your big support!

Thor -- have you been to mantisuniverse.net yet? You might notice some key pictures

 

[ThorEH]

Off course... where do you think Carlito and Eliseo got the pictures from

 

[ThorEH]

And here are the pics of the Gongylus, both have now moulted - and are at L5 (or is it L6..?!?)

 

[Kruszakus]

Man, I must say that you are a splendid photographer! Awesome pictures!

I have a question - just how many of them you are currently keeping?

 

[ThorEH]

I only got two - haven't got to counting segments yet, but I'm hoping. Will get more of these in the spring - when it's safe to send

 

[Kruszakus]

From whom were these bought from? I have my eyes on this species for a long time, but I haven't heard about anything else but failure with breening them on my own turf - so no Gongylus from my homies...

Hi

Your post No. 67 is showing (a) famale larvae for sure. Both pictures are females, so let's hope both pictures are showing the same, one animal?!?!

Regards,

tier

edit: Yes. Now I can see it is the same picture/ the same animal. This one is a female! Take pictures of the other one next time

 

[ThorEH]

Will take some pics of the other one tomorrow Tier - Thanks !

Yes, I keep them together all time, but seperate the males from the females. And I seperate very youg larvae from very old larvae.

[Kruszakus]

Why keep both sexes apart?

 

[tier]

Hi

Because I have enough space

It makes it easier to control them growing ;-)

Right... now another issue - people were complaining about ooth fertility. I mean, all of the females were after mating - so they were fertile, but the number of nymphs delivered from the ooths was like hitting a big number at a lottery - sometimes dwenty, sometimes two, sometimes none... have you encountered a similar problem?
