Thanks for having me!

I'm new to raising nymphs, only have Carolinas so far... I got a little in over my head because I had 3 VERY fertile ooths all hatch within a 3 day time frame. I now have 200+ L2s (alllmost L3) in deli containers taking over my whole basement. Trying to find new homes for them is tough, how do y'all do it?!

AND YET!

I'm ISO ghost, spiny, and Asian flower ooths.

welcome, good luck with them, they are hard to raise in captivity, maybe put over half outside and find them later this fall.

Hi, wondering how your endeavors have been. I'm interested in raising mantids legally and am based in Denver, so if you have learned anything or know where to source them I am all ears
