    New to the mantis world, looking for ghost

    Welcome!!  I know I saw several ghosts for sale when I was browsing the classifieds the other day, but I would recommend saving a link to all the common stores too for other supplies in general, they are all fantastic and if one is out of something one of the others does.

    Welcome!!  Check out the care lists for additional details on the beginners to narrow your choice down.  They really are fantastic great first pets!  Invest in some good 32oz cups with vented lids, you use them a lot!  You would need different size housing for your mantis buddy, as they grow as...

    Hai!

    Check out some of the species comments. And then look at the specific care sheet for the species choices in the care portion... there are several species that do well for beginners and some of preference is asthetic.   I have just Chinese right now as they're one of the more common/easy to...

    Hai!

    Welcome!  Oh, how I wish I had a menagerie like you, but my husband says no.  I slipped mantids in along with our cat pets, and LOVE them!  I would recommend before you get your first that you get a few different size homes for them so you don't end up having to rush into preparing a bigger home...

    Introducing Indy!

    .... ? just a little spoiled!  I found he likes the green mesh, not white.  I'm now working on making a nice green mesh lid.  By the time I have it done and ready, he'll have out grown it.  Lol!

    all female

    Oh my gosh yes!  Mine are, I think (as some are pretty lil'), male and they are all very unique.  My oldest is very curious and friendly (name: Indy), he likes to hang out on me and explore.  I have one that is super jumpy and nervous (name: JJ -Jumping Jack), one that is super calm and likes to...

    Thoughts on Mantisplace.com

    I do, and I use a few of the other mantis stores out there... I have had nothing but good experience with each of the bug/frog/mantis stores.  One of the things I like too is that a lot of the bug stores are on the forum here too and are all super helpful and friendly!

    Introducing Indy!

    Haha!  I did rough up the surface, but also hot glued a fake cloth leaf that covers most of it.  He still likes to hang on to the lid itself, though.  I like to use cloth mesh, but Indy doesn't seem to like it.  I used it in the old cup he was in, he touched it once and avoided it like plague...
