    Emergency fruitfly advice

    If you mantis really needs to be fed bad then take one of the pupa and break it so there is some of the goo outside. Then, hold it to the mantises mouth to coax him to eat.

    What's your least favorite insect?

    Only 2 bugs have messed with me enough to earn a spot on my bad side. 1. Mosquitos: They are literally good for nothing. I remeber 1 night at a friends I went to get a moth for my mantis and when I came back in I had about a dozen mosquito bites. The only thing they would able to do for me is...

    Why is my mantis upside down by one leg? Is this what molting looks like?

    No that's not molting. Give him a light touch to see if he will get back on all 4 legs and walk. Hanging from 1 leg is generally not a good sign. Some honey for him would be good too.

    Their was plenty of threads with cross breeding mentioned and let me tell you that it does certainly work but it is frowned upon. This is due to the fact that someone apparently crossbred the 2 pseudocreobotra and sold them as one species leaving no genetically pure psuedocreobotras in the...

    How is my L2 Orchid Mantis enclosure looking?

    the cage looks fine, i don't see anything wrong with it as now the mantis has a clear path up and down. And if your mantis is anything like some that I've had, it'll probably not go down into the decorations at all and just sit on the lid all day being lazy :lol:
