[QUOTE="dgerndt, post: 146138, member: 4480"] So I got an adult female Egyptian mantis earlier this month, and I was told that she never mated and her eggs aren't fertile. Last night she laid her first ooth, and now I'm not sure what to do with it. I [I]would[/I] put it out in my garden, but seeing as she isn't a native species, I don't want any accidents. (What if she DID mate and her previous owner missed it?) But I don't want to just throw it out in the trash with smelly apple cores and used tissue and such, seeing as she put so much effort into laying those eggs. So my question for you is, what do [I]you[/I] do with not native unfertilized oothecae? [/QUOTE]
