Hatching Idolomantis diabolica ooths properly

[Don L.]

Hi All. I have done my research (to the best of my ability, anyway), and have found little information regarding the proper way to successfully hatch out well my several ooths of the Idolomantis diabolica. Heard to keep them hot, but how hot, and how hot is too hot? Misting? I know to mist the substrate or other interior objects rather than the ooths themselves, but how often is this needed, or is it even necessary, for a species that lives in very hot and dry regions(morning dew?)? About how long do they usually take to hatch from laying? ANY information is appreciated, as I hope for the best turnout from this large and hope-filled investment! Did I mention that I am also getting a few Hymenopus coronatus ooths that I could use the same sort of help with too? Thanks!

hope-filled is right

Do you have expereince hatching ooths and more importantly raising first instar nymphs?

So now that's sorted, are you pretty adept with I. diabolica?
