Wait and see, I guess. I know they are as fertile as they can possibly be. I try to mate between layings and always get 2 in before the first ooth. As long as there's a pair, there's action to be had. :lol:

Well, I'm down to 1 remaining "healthy" male. I was able to get this girl mated for a 5th time, but I don't think this male will be of much use in the future.

SUCCESS! I woke up this morning for my mantid "walk through" and found the first viridis ooth, which was laid on October 3rd (My B-Day), had hatched. WOOT WOOT! So my ooths ARE fertile, at least from female 1. I've got two more from the other 2 females which should hatch soon if they follow the same timeline. Looks like almost 2 months for my incubation time.
