There is an old biological theory that in most species, all animals are inherently female, and in more basic classes & orders, that concept would be more prominent. Just a thought, I have no evidence to confirm it, just makes sense to me.

And I've had quite a few more hatch out since. The last two hatched on the 10th. Looking at two more to hatch in the next week.

Ohhh poo - no, I like my theory better! Hey, how about this one: The higher cooking temp destroys the advanced female's brain, turning it into the inferior male & he's then shoved out earlier than the female, who still needs more time developing all her far more complex awesomeness?! Yeah, that's the ticket! Makes perfect sense to me!!!
