Had another hatch of B mendica. The mortality rate for the R valida is wonderful this time. Only lost a couple so far. Hoping the wahlies mate, he is sitting on her so that is a start.

 
YES!!! Last year I mated my Stagmomantis Californica. I read that they didn't need a diapause so I tried to hatch the ooths from around Aug to Nov. No dice. Sooo I stuck the other ooths in the fridge. I pulled them out a few weeks ago anddddd Voila!! I am so excited. Only on so far but hopefully more to come :D
