| Recieved a phyllocrania paradoxa (ghost mantis) ootheca in the mail today  Here is a picture of the incubator/enclosure!  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.  Fancy home made door    Made the door so that i wont have to take the lid off every time i add food or water

| Oh, and if you are wondering, the thing on the piece of paper on the plant is the ootheca | |

| 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  | |
