[QUOTE="River Dane, post: 306668, member: 10104"] Fall, 2016, just last year, I was looking at types of snakes I wanted, when somehow, the internet lead me to ants. From there, I was obsessed with the idea of having an ant colony. This eventually lead me to other bugs you can keep as pets, including mantises. That's when I realized I love mantises. I started looking for mantises online and stuff and discovered some pretty cool websites that sold them. Unfortunately, I lost interest, until recently, like, literally this May, my love was renewed when I found a Chinese mantis at my local garden center. I named him Mandarin. Currently, I have two mantises, Catalina ([I]S. californica, [/I]female), and Jakarta ([I]D. desiccata, [/I]female). I owned many more, but I went to visit my grandmother in Okinawa, and I released some of them, but a series of disasters killed many of the others... :( [/QUOTE]
