Gongylus Gongyloides Ootheca First time set up

[StevieHification]

Wouldn't a glue gun jeopardize the nymphs? Even a low heat gun could be too hot, and if glue is placed on the wrong spot you will trap the nymphs inside.

The glue came off SUPER easy and didn't harm the ooth at all. I hope. There even seemed to be enough glue to keep hold the ooth as well.

Ok feed back now cause I don't wanna mess this up twice. =) Is this the correct way then? It's opposite from what I had...

This is the side I glued them to the stick. What you think?

Bingo! The side with the long thread is the top side, while the opposite side is the base. Glue the base to a stick or something similar, then once it is glued its best to hang the ooth so the thread is facing down. This gives the nymphs some gravity assistance when hatching.

So I was wrong and your correct, right? Thanks!
