Cariblatta lutea Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 My third attempt at breeding this locality. Managed to get an adult pair to emerge, and I see a bunch of subadults in the enclosure so I'm expecting some breeding to take place soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hisserdude Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Wow! That adult male is MUCH darker than mine, mine is dark orange and yours is nearly black! Interesting! Wish you luck on breeding them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish you luck on breeding them! Thanks I have a jet black specimen from different locality that I need to get pics of. It's almost the color of Ischnoptera deropeltiformis! On a side note, here are some pics of specimens I had last year from same locality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hisserdude Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Nice! So what again is the problem with this species? Is it that they won't lay eggs, or that the resulting nymphs don't make it to adulthood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The locality pictured in this thread seem to have high random death rate among nymphs, and my friend who managed to get them to reproduce didn't have success raising the F1s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
