:clap: :clap: :clap:Update: first ooth produced out of 5 laid so far hatched today, 25-30 nymphs and counting, still hatching so we'll see how the end count works out? This ooth was the one I had doubts on so I feel pretty good about the others.
If anyone wants to put in a advanced order PM me for details.
I heard these are prone to getting eggbound
They've been connected for about 2 hours so far. The only concern I have at the moment is the female. She's been rejecting her food lately and eating only one or 2 flies every other day. She used to eat a lot more.
At least she accepted matings! My female had connection issuesNewest update: My parymenopus finally connected today.
Congrats! What was the final count of nymphs??Update: first ooth produced out of 5 laid so far hatched today, 25-30 nymphs and counting, still hatching so we'll see how the end count works out? This ooth was the one I had doubts on so I feel pretty good about the others.

That's still not a bad turn out. My girls first ooth only had one emerge. That was still definitely my fault tho.
You've got the snooki of mantids.She finally laid an ooth. I thought she was just going to die. She had not eaten in like two weeks was clearly not eggbound. She was mated by 8 different males. If this ooth is not fertile i'm quitting the hobby! :lol:
