really guys?! i guess its nice to see them sharing over eating one another.

i was preparing my package to send out to Agent A and was transfering stagmos into another container, when i saw one of the L2s had taken down an hf.as i was watching another L2 walked over to it slowly. it reach out gently and started eating the fly too. i guess it didnt feel like doing the work and knew its brother/sister wouldnt be able to finish.

I've seen this a few times but I've always broken them up. I imagine one of them finishing the fly and moving right along to munch on the other's arm.

 
Wow I can't believe they shared it without fighting. So mellow
the other actually ended up shaking the other one off, it didnt really want to share.

love the cute little heads :wub:
your little buggers are going out today, im sitting at work waiting for the mail lady to get here

this was my thought too. so i was watching them closely.

 
I've had nymphs do that, for about five seconds before they try eating each other's faces off. Mine seem to think sharing and sisterly/brotherly love entails devouring your sibling. =p
