This actually made me laugh! (And i lose 12 lb doing it) No offence? Do you keep them all in one room (sorry if you already said that here, I did not read everything on this topic)?

All the little guys and adult females and Incubation Ooth are in my computer room with 4 desktop PC so is warmer, all adult males are in living room so they wont smell the female smell.. ya lots work lol ....

well i really must say that even though there are only like 4 or 5 canadian members here, they r really doing well, you and repitalius and malak have many more mantises than many US keepers and you guys are a little more restricted due to the regulations and weather outside in Canada

bravo :clap:

you really have made due with what you have

I had trouble breeding my second generation of H. multispina. The males would damage the females if they attempted to mate at all. <_< I got 2 good oothecae out of them, but it was very frustrating.

I will be trying to breed the species again in a few weeks. I hope it goes better than last time.

Yeah multispina r hard to mate

Have u tried physically placing him on her? That helps a lot sometimes

 

[SilentDeviL]

I let them go do there thing in the big tank ... but the wont do it ... and i lost 1 male ,.. i guess i need to go back the the wooden stick method female front male behind...

 

[agent A]

Im telling u ive never had them mate unless i pick up the male by the thorax and place him on her back, he will then instictively connect and mate

Ya is not fun keeping them all . I'll be a H.Majuscula Ooth Producing factory very soon 6 Female Sub adult already and 6 Pre-sub . All i hope is 6 50% make it to adult then i'll be good . I have heard Sub Adult Female have high chance miss molt .... Due to too heavy and drop during final molt.
