I know of 3 of us who got them there so hopefully will beable to help each other out if need be. They were £30 for 6 2nd instars although it turned out both Norman and myself had 7 nymphs in the tub

Hi All,
Yeah they were a bargain, less than a fiver each, like Andrew said between the three of us we should stand a good chance of breeding these,
Norman.

I hope you both told the seller that there was an extra nymph in your tubs good luck with them guys

Cant believe that, i would of spent every penny i had on those

I thought they were 1st instar? Not sure though, the hatched ooth they came from was in the tub with them and He told me he had put a free one in so yeah, I got 7 too which have all now moulted perfectly. Im going to keep a close eye on these (not that I dont anyway ) but Im sure out of 21 nymphs, we can match-make a pair or more (hopefully). I also got a new species of creobroter that have just moulted into wierd banana yellow and chocolate things with purple inside the arms (anyone noticed any creos getting that colour before ) They get big for a dinky mantid but probablly not anywhere near as big as the wild collected C meleagris I have just had hatch .
