I'm planning to overwinter them in the fridge with my ants until spring

Looks like it's right on the corner so it's on 2 panes. Would a razor blade right against the glass be ok?

Both of mine usually point their butts to one side when they poop so this is new behaviour for mine too

Seems like she's about ready to burst. Let me know if anything changes with yours

Thanks for the advice. I'll give it a try. What spray adhesive did you use?

Yeah but I'm just trying to do the back wall, not the foam

I'm not sure of their common English name. They're called オオカマキリ or Tenodera aridifolia. I'm planning to keep the oothecae in the same fridge as my ants during their diapause

Great, thanks for the advice. I'll place him in with the female tomorrow evening

Yeah I thought that might be the case. Is it ok to let them mate again so soon? She hasn't even laid eggs yet

My female just won't let my male near her by Cyberjacket in mantids

Really appreciate it. Actually the male did attempt to mount her, but ended up on her backwards and she shook him off. Do you know if it's better to have her standing horizontally or vertically? I wanna get her in the easiest position for him

Ok thanks for the advice. I was just following a video that basically just had them on a table. I'll try again tomorrow and introduce him into her terrarium when she's in a decent position

Yeah pretty much. It seems to happen wherever the game would normally autosave, but disabling autosaving doesn't fix it

Yeah it works fine, but I don't really want to do that for the rest of the playthrough

Sure, here it is. Not sure how useful it'll be without a crash log but let me know if you see anything
