    Eye Marks?

    Hey everyone, recently I've noticed some strange marks on my Giant Asian’s eyes, and I’m wondering if anyone happens to know what’s causing them and if it’s something benign or malignant.

    Beware of attack stick

    I’m convinced Mantids are escapees from Area 51 😆

    The stores aren’t the best and I have to admit when I keep them it’s not in the best conditions either, which I thought would be okay since they aren’t in their cage long before getting eaten. That’s been my theory too, since I heard crickets are very susceptible to diseases and collecting filth...

    Thank you for all the help :)  I’ve actually been interested in attempting to raise blue bottles! Do you have any tips? I haven’t really been able to find any concrete instructions for how everything works.

    Sudden Mantis Death

    I’m sorry I can’t say exactly how old he was. If I had to guess, maybe L4? As for what he ate, he had a large cricket.

    Sudden Mantis Death

    I’m somewhat new to the hobby, so I’m just trying to understand what caused his death. He was completely fine one minute, then very sick the next.  The day after he ate, I found him on the floor of his cage. He was completely limp—couldn’t even keep his head up. He progressively got worse over...
