Only 1 Nymph? Carolina Conundrum!

[Mime454]

3 days ago, I found a single Carolina nymph hatching from one of my ootheca from a captive bred female. I never dia paused the ooth, and it's been about 3 months.

Is this staggered of a hatch normal for an ooth that hasn't been diapaused? Or is this ooth a dud?

The 1 nymph didn't survive.

No it can be normal....I had one nymph hatch and I was shocked as you, but then about 4 days later a couple more and then another 4 days the rest...it was like a warning nymph or something spray the enclosure and get some moisture in there raise temps a little bit

All the best,

Andrew

a few days sure, but three months?

Sorry for confusion. The nymph hatched 3 days ago, 3 months after the ooth was layer.

Could just be the first one out but unlikely, no clue what causes it.

Yeah, listen they all decided they did not appreciate you sending their Nana roach pictures all hours of the night!

And then they decided not to hatch!!

That'll learn 'ya !

^^^^tried to like but couldn't.

2 more hatched! One is fine. One is still dangling. Not high hopes for him.

Sounds like not enough humidity to me, although I'm not an expert on ooth hatching.

 

[Mime454]

4 so far.

Carolinas can take weeks to fully hatch out. Just keep them warm, and misted.

 

[Mime454]

I went out for food and 15 more hatched while I was gone. It's like they just don't want to hatch when I conscious. Only when I'm asleep or gone.

 

[aNisip]

See, lol I told you they'll keep comin' ...its like a warning nymph and then they'll start a comin'... ^-^

All the best with the rest hatching!

You should sleep more!
