What a lag, but the I. oratoria ooths are now hatching!

Hey guys! It's been a while since I've been on here. I hope everyone is doing fine.

There were a couple of you that purchased I. oratoria ooths from me and asked me to post pictures of when mine hatched... Well, here they are! We had some unbelievably cool temperatures this spring here where I live. That, and the fact that I do not provide supplemental heat to my ooths made the incubation time longer than usual for my ooths.

Anyway, I've got nymphs hatching from ooths from all females that were in my stock from last year. As always, they are skittish to begin with, but end up hungry monsters a few days after hatching.

Awesome, mine haven't hatched yet either, however I just put them out in the 100+ weather outside. Although I do see L5s outside.
