I like your photo's Pelle!

You really take the time, don't you?

Thanks!

That depends on the nymphs, these were not walking a lot. But if they do I quit pretty quick

Still weird to talk English to someone who's Dutch :lol:

Ain't that species neat?

My 2nd generaton should turn adult soon

I found two nymphs in that "Where's Waldo" photo...

 

[Pelle]

Correct

I like them, jumpy though :lol:

 

[Kruszakus]

They stay this way till they reach adulthood - and the fun is, that you can always keep them together - females won't touch each other

 

[Pelle]

That's nice
