Recieved a phyllocrania paradoxa (ghost mantis) ootheca in the mail today Very Happy

Here is a picture of the incubator/enclosure! Smile

I expect around 15 to emerge as it's not too big.

Lets just hope it hatches! It was pretty dry in the container it came in.

Nothing happened yet..

I also got one acontista multicolor ooth and one hierodula membranacea ooth. The membranacea was supposed to replace the 2 dead mantids i got from polyped but it was moldy..
The acontista multicolor ooth was dry and dark so I doubt theres life in that too..

Maybe I'm not supposed to be a mantis keeper Sad
