    New simple enclosure

    I made a temporary enclosure for the last mantis that was still in a little jar. Then as the time went by I started to think this was the best one yet. Made from a box from some candy just like my other once. :lol: I can open the whole front as well as use the little hole on the side (will...

    Mantid´s first molt and question about sizes

    One of my mantis has molted for the first time :D he/she is now I think almost 1cm longer than before! The skin is just hanging there on the mesh on the side of the enclosure and I will take it away if soon (go and get it if it´s not fallen to the bottom tonight). I wanted to ask you, I have...

    My first enclosures

    Thank you for being so nice :) I have some foundings on the enclosure matter ;) One, the lid on these containers is rather...what do you say...big?..they go so far town that you can´t see the mantis through the side when it is in the lid, you have to look on top and through the lid to see...

    haha thanks Jameslongo Thank you for your advice Katnapper :) yes I was thinking about putting in a paper towel but I like to color of the soil so I just wanted to try, like to have it more natural. I will probably take it away if it bothers me. Not so much afraid of the micro organismis...

    My first enclosures

    They are redy!! :D First one, put in a little leaf I had from a silk flower, silk flowers are the only fake flowers I have found and they are expensive so I only took two little leafs from my silk flowers that I have in my livingroom to get a little color in the enclosure. Second one...

    Wanting to eat upside down?

    My Chinese really like to eat standing on their legs. One of mine was standing on the lid (that was upside down, lying on the table) and eating, when I put the lid back on the jar he dropped the food. So I had to pick it up and give it to him again and I didn´t dare to try this again if he...

    My first enclosures

    Oops, see it now haha 27 and 29 cm are of course not the same length :lol: Thank you for calculating it, I always use totally different measurements so I have no idea what gallon or oz are big :lol: but good to hear that it is a good size, nice to see how many liters it is, now I can...

    My first enclosures

    The measurement, I will convert it to inches Bigger 29cm x 13cm x 12cm = or in iches 10.6 x 5.1 x 4.7 = Smaller 27cm x 10cm x 11cm = or in inches 10.6 x 3.9 x 4.3 = How do you calculate this, just multiply all the numbers together or? :huh:

    My first enclosures
