They seem to be gradually hatching if taken out of the fridge for a while, and I can then put the hatched flies into the terrarium for the mantis to catch. However, this batch are all coming out only able to crawl around, and some are even ending up partly attached to the pupa after hatching or even unable to emerge in a couple of cases. I’m not sure if it’s a dodgy batch, if they’ve gotten too cold, or should be fed before being put into the terrarium to give them some energy. Any thoughts?</p></blockquote><p></p>
