Got in one of "those" packages yesterday!

Thank goodness for your great closeups, Tavia - their antennae were the clue that finally helped me (somewhat) find their heads. They are fantastic!
 
Some kind of crummy pics of the now adults breeding.

It's a good thing that there is a market in mantis ooths, egg cases. Ended up with 3 females, they lay between 15 to 20 egg cases during adulthood on average and the ooths produce between 20 to 30 babies each! Can definitely end up swamped in them! I'll only keep a couple ooths though and sell the rest.
