This could be interesting but I'm not sure how easily they will adapt to being reintroduced, perhaps not too badly as mantids are not in a "higher taxa" eg mammals birds etc and also don't learn anything from parents eg feeding and other behaviour

another thought if it was sent in an envelope it wouldn't have been put in a condition suitable for animals, pressure & temp in plane would have been wrong, this is why importing has high shipping costs, they need to be kept warm etc not sure how this would affect oothecae though

bit of a generalisation, lol :P cant say that all are I know of one good tanzanian exporter although as far as I'm aware he doesn't send things by post, only air freight which means to make it worth while you need to spend $1000-2000 since shipping is around $300 If only I had the money...

cool mimicry, not a mantid I would REALLY want to keep but perhaps I need to see more pictures first has anybody got them in culure or are you trying to find an exporter? Where are they from?

Just what I was thinking, lol If this is how he exports things I don't think I'd continue using them, however thats up to you as far as hatching I've no idea, if it was me I'd incubate them anyway and see what happpens

they are from Germany, i imported them for her I met her at SEAS which I am currently the secretary of, Im now a moderator on invert part of their forum, lol need to get up and see the shop next soon

reptiles in the green I guess? Diane's cool I supplied the B.mendica, lol I thought u were in Edinburgh???

I thought there were tornados or hurricanes or something down south within the last year? Birmingham perhaps?

just what I was thinking, anyway wat is eragon? never heard of it! perhaps it just over the other side of the pond?

doubt I'll be going to anything until next year HOwever I think me and Cameron win the prize for firthest trip if we were to go (ppl in the UK)

I've only ever bought it from Invert people, seen advertised on the ELG list

as I said on livefood forum :P

end of april if I remember right, not too sure though, think ian has a date on his site

no idea yet, lol, far too far in the future, theoretically speaking I could drive myself but would either need other driver in car or pass my test within a few weeks of my b'day, lol Cameron, should meet up some time, I can get a train to waverly/haymarket (bathgate line) easily enough - train...

only 1 of me (3 versions of that 1 tho :D ), uploaded these for similar thread on another forum Only good pics of me I hav :D Think Ian (except some1 that doesn't use it anymore) is the only 1 on here I've met but might be wrong

I thought it was to mimic foliage moving in the wind etc as chameleons do if you can find where you read about depth perception could you give us a link?

That's what I thought (EDIT: posted before I noticed there was page 2) So Christian, these are actually two species but you believe that the ones cultured are both the same species, is that right? Hierodula stalli winning by 1 vote so far though, excluding the funny people ( :P ) who voted...

great: Yes 72% [ 13 ] Rhombodera basilis 16% [ 3 ] No 5% [ 1 ] Hierodula stalli 5% [ 1 ] 14 out of 18 people voted yes or no, lol

Did you remember all them or copy & paste? Just interested, lol, as it would take quite a long time to type them out. Last time I checked ads.goliathus.com had closed but I'll check again

I've been told in the past that these are one and the same, so what would you call them if you had/have them? I would probably opt for R.basilis but I'm not sure Hopefully I've remembered right and not made myself look like a plonker :oops: lol EDIT: Ignore the yes/no please, no idea...
