Theopropus elegans ooth hatches

[major vex]

Not a bad hatch from this one, just a few stickies but due to a known humidity drop, still a good result!

Thanks Shaik, they are looking great at the mo, any tips on best housing for getting them started seeing as you have had a good deal of success?

Fantastic Dan. I'm still learning more about them so I don't really know that much. For housing, I just use a number of fake leaves to create shaded areas as they really like that. They will bask once in a while but most of the time, they prefer shaded areas. If there are no shaded areas available, you'll observe that they'll start being restless and move around in their enclosure a lot.

Also, try not to overfeed them. I've lost quite a few due to indigestion caused by overfeeding. I must say that you're one of the lucky ones to have hatches from a T. elegans ooth. From what I've experienced, it seems that even after pairing them up multiple times with multiple partners, there will still be no guarantee that their ooths will be good. Good luck with them.
