    Wanted Adult Mantis

    Looking for any L4-adult large mantis species. If you have any adults looking for a good home... Texas Unicorns or Sphodromantis would be ideal, but open to anything. Besides being well-fed and taken care of, the mantids will be on display from time to time when I hold outreach tables. When...

    Idolo Nymph - Bad Molt, Thoughts?

    Thanks Precarious. He is in a larger container with plenty of branches to climb on and soft soil on the bottom. I'll update after next molt.

    Idolo Nymph - Bad Molt, Thoughts?

    A friend from school received many nymphs, not exactly sure from where...but She had too many and gave me this idolo nymph. When I received him he was L2-L3 is my guess, missing one leg, and he only has about half-motion with the back left leg. He molted once, the middle leg is beginning to...

    Pale eyes and Less Active

    Well, to update everyone. I've been feeding her all that she will eat and making sure she is drinking some fresh water. She seems much happier, and the paleness in her eyes seems to have dissappeared. Of course, I've given her more attention as well. The combination of the three seems to have...

    Pale eyes and Less Active

    Well they are "large" crickets. She used to gobble them down in about 5 minutes max. Now she will hold on to a cricket for at least 30min. As if she is trying to enjoy every bite. CFl? Fluorescent lighting?

    Pale eyes and Less Active

    Well she just happily caught her cricket that she dropped earlier and is eating it now. One eye is cloudier and does have some dark spots, I don't know her exact age because I received her as an adult. What is the typical lifespan of Blue Flash?

    Pale eyes and Less Active

    My Blue Flash adult female usually moves some around her cage, but has not moved at all and just sits at the bottom. Her eyes were very blue about a week ago, but they have started to look foggy and less blue. Should I be concerned? She has laid 3 full-size ootheca's, eats about two crickets a...

    Mantisplace

    Received my Adult Blue Flash (who is about to lay an ooth!! -surprise from Rebecca!!) very promptly, packaged extremely well! Even came with a BBF culture for food! It is obvious Rebecca takes great care of her mantids, and I appreciate it very much. She is a great person! Thanks again so much...

    What do Mantid Forum members drive?

    I hear you there, I saved for a while for my exhaust, but totally worth it. That v6 is pretty fun, its the 4.0L, same one in explorer's right? I wanted to put a lift on mine, but I average 18mpg hwy, and 14ish city, and I wouldn't even want to find out how low that could go. I've heard some...

    Nice man! They do look huge on the rangers. Is yours the 4 or 6? Mine has the lower "towing-gears" 3.36 I believe, only mods are a CAI, Superchip, and Banks Exhaust (my favorite, I love how annoyingly loud it is) its got some power, but definitely loves gasoline! haha I wish I still had the...

    Yeatzee, I'm running 33s now. Nitto Durra Grapplers, more of a hwy terrain, but still aggressive enough for the light off-roading I like to do. They are great tires!! Had them put on in March.

    Looking for Mantids

    I'm looking for nymphs (or adults). Preferrably a communal mantis, so I am very interested in the Ghosts. Also interested in creobreter, or any other -more common- species. (Or if you have extra mantis that you just need a good home for, I can pay for shipping.) Please let me know if anyone...

    Howdy

    Definitely Large, Colorful (Cool Cryptic), and as you put it "######-is-that-looking" hahah (Or mantis looking) Would like a large, but doesn't have to be the biggest species out there. Would rather something unique, but still of decent size. Any suggestions?

    Howdy

    Definitely not discouraging, I appreciate any advice anyone may have. Although the Idolos is definitely one of my favorites, I was thinking about trying something a little bit easier to start out with. I've hatched some native Mantis from an ooth, and raised a couple to adult, then released all...
