ok i will make a photo today and post it here ;)

First pair is L5 ;) Female: Male: Do you think they are sub-adult?

Can i add just regular mashed apples instead of apple souce? Or there is something more in the apple souce, so I have to buy it? And I think I will try it with corn flour instead of Masa ;)

One more picture of all compleated - ready to use:

Great picture ;) I used to buy 4 of each species and usually I was lucky ;) - Now I have 4 O.distinctus - and I have 2 males and 2 females ;) . Bought them at L2 ;)

It took about 9 months from L3 to L9. But now between L9 and L10 will be probably around 5-7 months ;) . They can live pretty long, especialy females, mine is a male and they live up to 2 years after last shedding ;)

I heared it does pretty well, but anyway by now it will be for O.distinctus, and they don't need high humidity ;)

My friend gave me 2 glass pieces so I decided to make some small enclosures for my mantids. Glass was 28x64 cm and was 6 mm thick. Looked like this: I decided to take it to the proffesional glass cutter, so it will be done ok. Looked like this after cutting and cleaning: The rest of the...

OK I will try that, but maybe some other recepies? I would like to check out as much as possible to find out the best one ;)

So I need a good recepie, taht will hold some time, and the flies (mainly D.hydei) will live on it for a long time, healthy ;) I'm tired of buying it all the time, and I would like to make my own ;) thanks :D

Thats cool - do you have something like that but about sexing other mantids?

Hehe it has cool little short antenas ;D

First one molted to L4 yesterday evening: I'm very happy :D

Here is my Nahndu chromatus! I bought it as L3 and now its L9, and its a male ;) Here 2 days after i bought it (L3): Now L9: Hope you like it :D

WoW I didn't know that they can lay so many ooths :o

Great mantis - I guess I'm gonna buy those next ;D

Hmmm I found this mantis in GA, and I'm not really sure what is it - it was a male - i took it only for pics, then I let him go where I found him ;) . Can anyone tell me what it might be? http://www.terrarium.com.pl/galeria/viewph...mp;userid=15474 From this page about Florida mantis it...
