Idolomantis diabolica..............

Happy happy happy

It took this male HOURS to figure out what he had to do, but he got there eventually.

He spent ALL evening walking on her, over her, mounting my finger and the stick, grabbing her legs, trying to copulate with her legs.

At one point I was actually willing the female to eat him

I don't think the mating was successful though, but I've put him on her again this evening, so watch this space !

Congrats Rob! Lets hope it was a successful one.

Alan managed to get his to mate last year, and got ootheca from the female...but never got a hatch. Maybe it was an unsuccessful mate?

Let us knows how it goes...
