i got around to taking pictures of the orange things... what do you think they are?

the whole mass is about 3 mm long.



and who was it who wants dead specimens?
that would be me. Contact via email please.
That photo shows a dried mass of eggs. Conditions must have been much too dry, and warm. The ambient conditions of a natural burrow prevents this from happening.


thanks for sharing,

there just must have not been enough moisture, on the contrary i would imagine that humidity wouldn't be a major problem in NY.
they're from Pulk in San Diego, where humidity -is- a problem. :)
