egg cases: any day now

mantis egg cases

After they hatch, there will be many birds out there looking to feed their progeny. Odds are very much against the mantis nymphs. Lately, the little finches and sparrows are flying right up to the windows, going after spiders and crane flies, so I am keeping the egg cases indoors in a big jar till it’s time to move them outside into something bigger, possibly an old aquarium. And yes, I will find some food for them.
