CHOMP & GUILLOTINE
Parasphendale agrionina
Budwing Mantis Pair
She's been coned to prevent her from eating him. She's spicy.
Two days after pairing she laid this ootheca. Hopefully it's fertile!

As of December 2nd, we have BABY BUDWINGS!!! Chomp passed on November 21st. Rest in peace, my man. You did good.
So far ~60+ have hatched.

i have had a low grade headache and a low grade sore throat since my vaccine booster on tuesday. nothing disabling, just uncomfortable and annoying. chicken wings did not improve either of these symptoms
also, somewhere in my archives there are pictures of a real praying mantis ootheca that my kids and i hatched and more pictures of all the pretty babies, but all i can find right now is this picture of fallie with pretzel, one of the babies after she was all grown up

[Older pic] Here's a cockroach still just barely holding onto its ootheca/egg case! (Honestly I didn't know what an ootheca even was until after I had picked it up :P)

In other less horny news. My ADHD has hyperfixated on the word ooth/ootheca in a Scottish accent. I'm sorry to the entire country of Scotland, I can't help it and it's really fucking funny
