quick question

[Simon]

tonight I noticed my african mantis has laid an ooth it is stuck onto a branch in her tank but she hasnt been mated so it cant be fertile, just wondering if all adult females do this regardless of whether they have mated or not??

 

[Rick]

Yes. They lay ooths whether they have been mated or not.

 

[Simon]

cool thanks for your quick reply

 

[Simon]

another quick question will she keep doing it or is that it now, and do you think I should remove it?

 

[Rick]

She will make an ooth every few weeks or so.
