OK, so I've got two pieces of glass and between them is wet toilet paper in like a ring about 2 inches in diameter. What else do I need to do to make her more comfortable? I'll see if I can get a photo for now, I'll describe her. She has a black head, black body, and a light brown with an almost gold/brown line going horizontally across here butt in the middle of it that sort of fades back into the brown color of her but. Also right now, she seems to be like cleaning the end of her, but where I would assume the eggs would come out? is this normal behaviour? thanks for any responses!

Also I'm worried that it might be a termite, I'm very new to this, it looks like an ant with a slightly larger butt, but I looked up termite queens and they have huge white butts, do they develop these later and I'm just an idiot or what... I'll try to find my camera.

Why not try and describe the species on the net and see what comes up
