[QUOTE="Butterfly, post: 20774, member: 645"] So, I have 3 ooths from my European Mantis, and am expecting another 1 or 2 possibly. But from what Ive been reading here it seems they need a period of cold before they will hatch? Is this true for even areas of southern california since I found mine in the "wild" (not like LA has any true wild areas left) Should I put them all in the fridge for a while, and if so how long? When they come out should I start separating them immediately so they dont all eat eachother or will they even eat the first few days. I know I need to have a few cultures of fruit flies but will I need them the day they hatch or do I wait a couple days to feed the nymphs? If they dont need a period of cold then I better get a culture now as it has almost been a full 8 weeks since the first ooth was laid. So any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys and girls.
