[QUOTE="agent A, post: 345610, member: 2948"] hey all, so you know how to get [I]Gongylus gongylodes [/I]to breed by keeping males at 85-90F for a week or so before pairing? Well, I've noticed some things with [I]Pseudocreobotra wahlbergii[/I] 1: at room temp, they tend to grow very slowly, requiring 5-7 months to mature 2: at room temperature, mating is hard! I have had just a few connections at room temperature now, I was thinking "this is an African mantis that would live at high temps", so I put some under a heat emitter it seems to make them way more willing to mate and such, and while I don't have the numbers to make a statistically significant conclusion YET, i'm working on it!
