Video of nymph emerging from expelled ootheca

Sixth Instar
I uploaded this to youtube so you all could see it. I noticed an expelled ootheca in my Madagascan Hissing Cockroach enclosure and was about to discard it when I saw something move. To my surprise, there was a nymph wiggling a little bit so I grabbed my camera and started recording. I don't know how long the ootheca had been sitting there before I noticed it...probably only a few minutes I would guess. Hope this link works...it's my first time on youtube...

There were others too! You should have lightly misted it with water and kept it warm others would hatch. That was cool though, must be healthy offspring to survive that!
