Ya this one is bigger then the 12x12x12 ZooMed i have for mating i believe the new tank is 24x20x24. ... i got too many species turning to adult and i have 6-8 female per species ... so ..... i'll be busy doing a lot mating I'm pretty sure next mth or 2 I'll be starting to mate Hierodula majuscula and Popa spurca crassa haha.......Thats a bigger tank than I thought from the pic you sent me lol. Great find for $50. I cant believe how small the snake mantids are.
Thanks TammyCongrats on all of your ooths hatching. That's a lot of babies to feed!
I already have 2 Cero Ooth ... I got 8 Females ...lol and mated 7 2-3times each ... i more female to go Molted on Nov 10th ... then I'll be set Cero Factory will start to produce lol ..... 8 Female = around 50 Ooth .......... or More I only counted each can laid 6 ... i think they can go 6-10 ....Crazy ... If i send them all out just my postage will be over $200 ...... I think i need to start to sell some to get my postage $ back....Other then just trading ... I produce way too much Ooth per species....looks like he got the job done though B)
be sure to save me creo and popa ooths![]()
