Cariblatta lutea Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 Whelp....out of about ~20 nymphs I received, most of the males died before they reached maturity, and majority of the females ended up getting deformed wings as adults, and produced deformed oothecae (perhaps they were suffering from Wolbachia infection?). Only 6 adults ended up with no deformity so I separated them (except for 1 female that kept producing deformed ooth despite having no wing deformities) into another enclosure in a hope that they'd breed for me. Today I checked on their enclosure to see how the adults were doing and to my surprise i discovered tiny babies! I'm extremely thrilled about this! Hopefully they'll grow up without any problems 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
