HibSmile, yes they do! I smart, not really, not yet. There are a couple of bad pics, but I broke the camera taking wild pics of scorpions. I'm currently working on it though! If I get some decent pics, I will post link or pm you with it. :) ~r

Thanks everyone! I've got some good stuff to chew on with this now. Currently, considering responses, I think I am going to try and find out about sealants, and either seal or paint untreated wood or just use a rot resistant wood. Its going to be a while, but as soon as I have one done...

Thanks for the reply! :) Well that makes sense. I may be living in an apartment in Nola (New Orleans), but I can work with 1"x1"'s or 2"x2"'s out on the sidewalk or anywhere else for that matter! :) Frass- I had to look that up! Yeah, I will be washing that out too. I have a lot...

I want to make a display quality cage, because well, I would want to display them. :) All the net cages I see that don't have wood frames don't look nice. They might work well, but they don't look good. I want something that looks nice, like the mantis'. :) Why don't many people use...

My first thread yeah! *Note* I did my best searching for equivalent information on here without finding any. If I bobbled search, I apologize. I also looked at every title within housing, without reading every post, and did not see this either. Also, I am experienced with keeping...

Hey! Thanks for the info! I plan on getting it soon. It's on the list! Yuma huh? I may be heading to that area to look for scorpions this summer. If you see a 145 lb good looking guy :lol: with a burnt orange backpack hitch hiking, you had better pic me up!

Thank you! I find them all the time. Just the other day, on one of my regular walks in the woods, I had a young instar, or small species (1/2" full length), land on me. I have always thought there is something more to them than just being insects. They have a desire to interact with...

Thanks! Sounds like my "communal" scorpions! I really have 0 idea about mantids. I plan on waiting awhile and reading up throughly before I obtain any. I am going to take my time with this one. I've got a lot to learn. If I get to where I think I will be in a month or two, I may be in a...

*edit* I'm editing this, because it was hardly legible, and not quite intro material. I shouldn't be allowed to type that late! ~r I'm currently breeding Centruroides vittatus, Psuedouroctonus reddelli, and Tityus stigmurus. I have many other scorpions right now. But I will be trading...

Hey everyone! First night on the forums. I've always love mantids. They seem to like me too, as I'm always finding them on my shoulder. They really seem to come out of nowhere sometimes! When I was a little kid, I had one stay in my front bushes, and when I would leave, I would pick it up...
