Here's the work area, it is not very big, but I find you do not
need a big work area, cause you can only work with one or one container of babies at a time. The tray with all the equipment is
where I keep what I need while working with them. When you have hundreds to take care of you need to save any steps you can.
In the tray is an ink pen with labels for recording molts and hatchings.
Or sometime I record when a stubborn one eats. There is honey with a bamboo stick stuck inside it. Every now and then I stop to give one set
of a species a sweet treat. All my tweezers and scissors and some hat pins are there, and in the drawer is a thermometer, measuring
spoons (for making ff food) a funnel and some other things I may need to grab.
There are toothpicks, used for a bad molt stuck on someone, cue tips, my cotton pads, my cricket quincher for me crickets. That's about it for this area,
up above is where I keep the mantis information and the old ooths.
Old ooths sitting there due to I haven't made the board they will be posted on. The information is on each species and what is recordable information
on them, ie hatching, molts, mating, eating, size, and so on!
This is why you have such healthy mantis
