Mantid Community, Im taking a hiatus of mantis keeping for a while. :l Lifes getting super busy, and my plants are attention hogs. I can only focus on a few blood thristy monsters at a time apprently. That being said, i dont feel my mantises are as happy as they could be. So here's what i...

i pm'd you but you never got back! :huh:

i love the petco cultures. nearly all i use. Theres a ton of flies in most, so i feed some right away and make a ton of cultures with them later! :D

Hey hey hey! :D

its my freaking host company! UGH! What are you looking for? Just pm instead, sorry for the troubles. :angry:

Hey guys, Im searching for some P. paradoxa, Creo, or other exotic but easy to keep species' ooths. I can trade some subadult C. humeralis', spiders, and exotic/edible/carnivorous plants. I can also trade credit to my store or cash. Let me know, Frankie

its basically like keeping a backwards mantis. Highly evoilved, spikey legs in the back, herbivores, and want it dry, not wet. They grow in the same fashion as mantis, with instars and whatnot, but a little faster.

They become less skiddish (sp?), will readily take to you...they just become "tame" and easier to work with! :)

WOW WOW WOW WOW! great pics! amazing bugs!

Welcome to the world of MANTISES! Keep your substrate moist, but not too wet. Try keeping him under a desk light for warmth and humidity. I have handling mantids bulds a stronger, happier mantis, so no worries there. Does he have wings? If not anywhere from 1 to 3 months would be my guess...

i do. i feel it builds a stronger, more "friendly", mantis with habts better suited for the cultured world. Plus its fun haha.

am i the only one who does not understand? :rolleyes: haha i guess? :unsure:

welcome from CALIFORNIA which is better than ohio! :lol: :P seeing pics of Merlot would help! funny, i just found an ooth on merlot grapevine... :)

man arkain you have GREAT luck for finding mantids! ive gotta start hunting again! :) hope she does well!
