great job!! I have had to hold several mantises while they molt!! sometimes they just fall in their man made environments. I wonder how many mantises mismolt in the wild?
its solid white plexiglass like they use in doctors offices to veiw ex-rays. it comes in several solid colors. I shot the example below on black plexiglass
for most of my mantid in studio shot threat display photos I use two 36 x 36 softboxes black or white Plexiglass with matching background colors. my camera is a canon eos1d Mark IV. I normally use a 100L 2.8 USM stopped down to F/16 for these shots
My transaction with aryia was outstanding her packing was top notch in a nice insulated box with a 72 hour heatpack from California all the way to Michigan and the box was toasty warm unlike others that have sent Uninsulated boxes and boxes insulated but with the inproper heat pack for 2 day...
Ok I have a question I breed my popas last night and they were connected for over 7 hours I woke up this morning to an ootheca in her container is it infertile because they just breed? Do I need to rebreed her?
