Twilightroach Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 How long does it take red runner ootheca to hatch normally? I know it probably depends on temperatures and humidity right? But how long would it take them to hatch with temperatures in 65-69 degrees? And also what is the maximum time I would expect an ootheca to hatch or still be viable? Like how long should I wait until the ootheca can be regarded as not going to hatch or non viable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mantisfan101 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 It can take a couple months, definitely longer at 65-69 degrees. I have mine in a deli cup in a larger container with wet paper towels underneath a heat lamp that stays at a constant 80-90 F. Most ooths take about 2 months to hatch. If the ooth has any notable dents or wrinkles on it, then it likely dried up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
