The only ootheca hatched befor i got a chance to
take it out of the parcel! Looking for more.
Diet: Drosophila, houseflies, crickets, wax worms,
meal worms. The feed must be very diversified. To
the newly hatched larvae must be promptly offered
Drosophila flies.
This picture is 1 to 1 ratio. Unfortunately the
