it just gets on my nerves people getting ooths and not being ready for them ,and losing them because they dont have food ready for them when they hatch

Thats perfectly understandable, I knew when i took on the resposability of hatching ooths that it was not a joke or somthing to be taken lightly.
I spent weeks research on the subject and and in doing so i stumbled across this forum which i was delightfully pleased in finding, as there are lots of people like yourselves who are expiereanced and compasionate about mantids.
However seeing as though I am a first timer you cant expect things to run perfectly straight away, but i am learning.....
