Bad arse! Congrats Cesar!

Wow! They look so cool all on it like that!

I just wish someone in the US would have hatches like these of that species

Good luck raising them!

 

[Mirk]

Very cool, they almost look like a bunch of little demons bunched together. They are bigger then I would expect for freshly hatched. Congrats

[brancsikia339]

That's fantastic!!!!!!!!!!! We need some of these in the US!!!!

Wow! And do you have a video, or can explain how they lay that ooth? Is it attached by that tiny part so that it's suspended in the air?

 

[hibiscusmile]

I don't have a video or something else =/ I was away from my house when she laid the ooth.

Yea, it's attached by that tiny part, look:

Wow, is this the second hatch of 2013 already? (After Paradoxica's giant shield hatch)

 

[Mime454]

How on earth do they lay that? Crazy!

How would a mantis even go about making that? All with their abdomens too.

Talk about 'butt'- eye coordination

Congrats Cesar and we were just talking about this this morning lol.

 

[Mvalenz]

That is crazy how it is suspended like that. Congrats on the hatch.

 

[twolfe]

Very cool! Congratulations. I hope these become more common in the US. They look like they'd be fun to photograph at L1.
