Enclosure - for nymphs they can be kept in for example a large mantis den. Which is 19-29cm 

and Before they mature move them into an enclosure that is approximately 30x45cm minimum. Or bigger.

if you're nymphs end up to be the opposite sex. Once mature the males will call for the females at night. This noise isn't too loud but it is destintive. Once they have mated the females will lay eggs on branches (if provided) and on the stems/ leaves of food in their enclosure.
