Stagmomantis floridensis

well it is sort of getting into winter here in FL (Lake Worth) and at night it is starting to get down to a beautiful high 50's-high 60's/low 70's at night and around mid 70's-low 80's during the day...hopefully it is fertile and hatches come spring!!!

Sounds like a good plan, hope get more nymphs than you can count my friend!

Congratulations Andrew! You're a father --- or an expecting father. I very muched liked the two photos of B laying the ooth. Thought you didn't have a camera? Those shots are fine!

I am very interested in getting some of these. They were in culture years ago but died out. I don't recall ever giving them a cold period. Let me know if your friend can collect me one or let me get a few nymphs.

[brancsikia339]

Any more found?

 

[aNisip]

Not yet...he hasn't gone out looking since.

Update: She laid a second ooth today...same size as the previous ooth....she is doing well it seems, hopefully more ooths to come!

 

[aNisip]

Update: She laid another ooth! About 3/4 the size of her other ones...

I was content, but now there are so many more species I want. I hate this subforum!

So is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Update: the adult female is really lethargic and was found this morning barely clinging on to the top of her net cube, I think she is on her way out...hopefully the three ooths she laid hatch out nicely come Spring! Its all a waiting game now...

 

[aNisip]

Hey guys little update: It is late March and still no nymphs....on the smallest latest laid ooth I decided to cut and peek inside to see what the deal was.Its not dried up and there is some development going on, which is a good thing so hopefully they just need more time...and I only misted it when it rained outside which wasn't very often so with this little misting its good to know they are still developing nicely...
