Your pictures are so incredibly insane... do you sell full scale prints? few extra £££ there...

I assume your breeding these when they mature, are you selling the nymphs?

I am a big fan of your photos from Bug Nation, these are of your usual high quality. Try to keep your males cooler as they develop faster than the females but I am sure you knew that.

thats the plan..i have a adult female..a guy is lending me his male so will see what happens..

as for the nymphs..i have 10..soon as i can spot which are males i have a room of 70f to put them in..females are in room of 82f..im hoping that should be cool enough for him at 70f...if not i can go cooler...
