Ooth laid on the bottom

[mantidsaresweet]

So my Creobroter pictipennis laid her second ooth a few days ago but she laid it on the ground on the paper towel. I had a stick/skewer in there which is what she laid her first ooth on and that one seems completely fine. She was mated successfully and conection lasted for 5+ hours. This ooth looks pretty normal she just laid on the bottom. I will get pics soon but really I would like to know if this has ever happened to anyone else and is the ooth good and will it hatch?

Thanks

My creos did that also, it will be fine, just glue it to the top

Some species may lay on the bottom when it is too dry.

My b mendica lay ooths anywhere. I prefer when they lay on the paper towels, but they also sometimes lay on the silk ivy or on the net.

I've had that happen. The ooth is no different than any other ooth. Take the towel and cut it out around the ooth and use a hot glue gun to attach the ooth higher. Make sure the dot of glue cools a second or two before placing the ooth. You only need a tiny tiny drop of glue.

Ok great. Thank you.
