A+++++ recieved 2 extra idolos. great communication, very nice and friendly. Will do business with him anyday.

When they are l1 to like l4 I think it shouldn't hurt but when they get close to adult they will need something like a stick to molt on

Wow amazing video. Always been a fan of your videos on YouTube. I'm surprised how far down they hang from the Ooth or is it just me?

It can be easily customized to hold idolo.

i rather not go. if i do i would want something i wont be able to get due to space. (chameleon)

the crickets shouldnt be a problem then.

Im sorry for your losses. Its frustrating to lose mantids at later instar. Are you buying your crickets from the store?

I have mine in a 12" by 12" net cube. Used for butterflies. I see your problem. It's a pain trying to keep fruit flies in a tank. I would wait till they are off of fruit flies and on to bigger feeders and move them to the tank. Well majority of them.

I keep mine inside. I have paper towels at the bottom which I spray like every 5hours. Pour in 100 fruit flies every other day.

I have not had this problem myself or have any proof but I read a lot on the forums and I have seen in many cases ppl saying that you should sterilize the stick from outside. Kill all the possibilities.

ventilation seems fine to me. did you bake the sticks you used in the new bigger enclosure in the pic? possibly there was something on the branch that harmed your mantid.

I would go with all in the aquarium. More perching spots where they can hang upside down. If they are fed well you shouldn't have any problems. I have like 35ish ghost all l3 in a 12" by 12" net cube with a a bendable fake branch and they all do fine 0 deaths since hatching out of the Ooth

give them some blankets

take some pics if you can

with this davisoni nymph i would rather be safe than sorry and use bamboo skewers if you can. they are cheap and wont harm your nymph. although they may not look natural its worth it to avoid hazard

i have this plant right outside my door and it seems that green bottle flies are attracted to it. they just land on the flowers and rub around on it. i can catch them easily by just closing a deli cup on them. i tried feeding them to my L3 ghost but they wont touch them due to they're about the...

yes, i think its only with some species. when had i chinese mantis they rarely shake but my ghost "shake it like a poloroid picture". i think its more common with species that are trying to mimic leaves.

What is the temperature where the enclosure is at? The way you have it is perfect. Having it upside down works. It should be any day now. Just keep the humidity up in there.

No prob. Has the Ooth popped yet? And how many like ones?

I skate down that same path! its really nice and a lot of people dont know about it.
