New terrarium for Hymenopus!

[f.wattiez]

Hello,

I have now tried the breeding of this species (Hymenopus coronatus) for two years! I start has to have a little success!

My last female lived 2.5 months and laid 4 ooths!

My terrarium for adult : (Mosquito net on all the high part but also on the interior faces)



My terrarium until the stage subadulte!





my incubator:



For the youthful ones, I always separated all and put out of goblet.

The third ooth has just hatched and I wanted to try another method! I have create a new terrarium, mosquito net on all the faces!







They are 70 in this terrarium! For food, I use a stock of wild drosophilas, for this reason I put banana in the content!

I will try the Community breeding until the stage L3, I would leave about ten specimens to the L4 stage to see how that occurs!

Bests regards, François!

Very nice, and I particularly like the background for the encosure in the fourth pic.

Lots of thought and hard work went into building your mantis cages. Rearing more generations shows your ideas work. Best of luck with them!

It looks really good, what kind of substrate is in the bottom of the containers? Also I have left mine together until sub adult with only one casualty.

It looks like vermiculite, but not sure.
