[QUOTE="PlayingMantis, post: 285399, member: 7332"] Start off with ghosts. I got 10 plus extras from Davedood and they end up averaging only 3-4 bucks each. I got them as L2s, so if you plan to get L2s, be sure to have a fruit fly culture ready. Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila hydei work well. Hierodula's are also good beginner mantises. Despite their lack of cryptic parts, they are large in size and are easy to handle. As people mentioned earlier, idolos are not a good choice for your first mantis. In addition, I do not recommend ordering nymphs from overseas, as they are likely to die in transit, among other reasons (import restrictions). [/QUOTE]
