Mizar has been a little ooth factory.  Here she gobbles down a fresh, fat cricket after she (Mizar) finished producing her fourth egg case.  What a terrible shame all these ooths are infertile.  Try as I may, I found this sp. impossible to mate.

@Digger Nice to see Mizar is doing so well. Indeed infertile ooths are upsetting, and even more so from a uncommon species. Sounds like you tried to get her mated at least, so there's no shame in that.

For me it seems my pet infertile females tend to be some of the most hardy and usually lay the most ooths too. My last Ghost female lived 15 months, and laid a total of 12 infertile ooths, after a few unsuccessful attempts to get her a mate I coincided defeat, but she kept at it.
