I dont know where to find them. This kind of post need to be in the forsale/wanted section.
Hi.
Noone trades self-bred ooths. Or maybe I should say "most". This is because you just get problems with this kind of deal. Several ooths from a breeding stock do not hatch, and you can not distinguish them from good ones. So, in order to make a good deal, you have to sell the ooth rather expensive. Now, if it doesn't hatch, your customer complains and accuses you of fraud. If you sell it cheap, and it hatches, you did not make a good deal. So, for my part, I do never trade ooths of this species, just larvae.
Regards,
Christian
