    Hysteresis' Mantis Stream - 2019

    If your male is a sub, he will be about 3-4 wks from molt to adult, then will need 2 wk to be mature after his final molt. Males don't live long after the final molt, only 2-4 months Orchids take a bit longer to be receptive to breeding. Females are receptive after 3-6 wks from final molt. ...

    I do origami, too! Or rather, I was really into it about 10-15 years ago! If you get stuck on a particularly difficult model, I find it helps to take a break and come back to it. Some of Robert Lang's models are crazy complicated. It is so rewarding when you get it right

    Graceface's Mantis family

    Yes, she is yellow and it is beautiful! She has yellow in her leg Petals and on the inside of her raptorial arms.  I sold her to @River Dane recently and he is trying his luck breeding her. I miss her, though! She was really stand-offish when I got her (I think her previous owner didn't handle...

    Adult Female P. Paradoxa Feeding Regimen?

    I feed my female adult ghosts every other day, about 4-5 BBF. If I offered daily feedings, they would take them, I bet Sub males get 2 BBF. When I've offered more at a feeding they do not eat more so I feel 2 is the magic number for male subs.  I haven't tried daily feedings of male Ghosts, as...

    Is a 32 oz enclosure big enough for a single Orchid subadult female?

    I've had 3 out of 3 females who molted to adult in a 32oz cup mismolt; that is 100% fail rate in deli cups. One of those females did survive a few weeks post molt, but all 3 did not live full, Happy lives. You lucked out @hysteresis and had smaller females who managed okay Adult female Orchids...

    Stuck in molt before even molting

    Brown spots have always indicated an illness in my experience. Any time I've had brown spots appear on the face and raptorials, it ended badly. I'm sorry for your loss. Sadly, there isn't much we can do in the way of medicine for a mantis that has contracted an illness. Honey water is usually...

    HOW'S THE WEATHER WHERE YOU ARE?

    I actually quite like the rain, which you have to to live somewhere like Portland! But yeah... It does get dreary after almost 2 months of no sunshine.  Sometimes I miss the rain, so I like it when it rains here, but I do enjoy not having to deal with it all the time 😊 It's a nice change of...
