 Welcome back to Kids Fun Science. My name is Ken. Today's experiment is pre-mantus hatching eggs. It's a great addition to your garden, helping clean up insects and a fantastic science project. In the description where I got mine, the young pre-mantuses eat aphids and grubs and mites and soft-bodied insects where the adults are gonna eat more like the spiders, crickets and other beetles and bugs. Here's the egg case that came with my kit and so mine took about two and a half weeks to hatch. It could be up to six weeks before they do so just make sure you check every day and once they do hatch make sure you take them out of the case immediately. Read the instructions because they will start eating each other because they're coming out very hungry and so you want to release them so they can start looking for insects in your backyard or your garden area as soon as possible. The eggs are laid soft and then the froth hardens creating a protective capsule which is pretty cool. Here is one of the many of them that would just climb up on my finger and sit there for a while before I released them all which I thought was pretty incredible. They are very, you can see with my finger they are very very small and you'd assume with that with the egg capsule there that they are gonna be pretty small. I don't think I got 200 of them but I did get many. I hope you enjoyed this video. If you did remember to click thumbs up and to subscribe. Thanks for watching!
