i kept mine in a plastic cup, damp tissue in bottom (sprayed every 2 or 3 days),

fine net curtain over top (so doesnt stay too damp) at around 25c - 30c most of the time.

most of mine hatched within 3-4weeks at this temp.

hope this helps.

I keep all my Chinese ooths in my room (temp 76-80 degrees) and do nothing outside of hanging the ooths in my cages. The humidity here is great in Florida though, so for non humid places I would suggest either light misting every few days or putting some damp paper-towels at the bottom of the cage for a little boost of humidity. I would not suggest putting them in direct sunlight, especially if your not using a net cage. Those little plastic cups/glass tanks can get very hot in direct sunlight since the heat enters and then can't easily escape.

Pretty sure I answered this same question in another of your threads. Room temps are fine unless you keep it below 70.
