I find it very funny that USDA claims that you need a permit to keep exotic bugs mantids ect. but the very law that would have made that true never passed! how come USDA can just claim things with no proof. I am going to Email them about this 

When I had a decent sized isopod culture I would throw in coffee grounds about every week sometimes more then that, of course tea is different but as long as it does not contain anything toxic to them it should be fine.

@Kermit can't wait to see what you find, if you are down by pena blaca lake and find any S.hero's I'll take them off your  hands :) right at the moment unicorn mantis season seems to be late as tucson has been quite hot and that must have put a delay on them, as I haven't found much this year 

@[email protected] can you find me a male or two, Becuase I have a wild female and I think she is fertile but to make sure I want to mate her again. I'll will PM you. moderaters if it's against the rules to say this on a post then you can remove it 

Hopefully the rest she lays are fertile, or mabye I can find another male 

I am pleased to say @CosbyArt and @[email protected] my adult wild cought female laid an ooth, I always see hatched ones around but I never find or see adults. I found a female about a month ago and today she laid the ooth, hopefully she'll lay more 

Thanks 

Yeah I plan to mabye keep one or two....mabye three :) lol but since they are fairly common here I would rather send them to people who don't have them or many T's in there state 

I have kept a costa rican zebra tarantula before I also enjoy see and holding any wild cought ones I find 

I do find those, but like you said it might be late. the are awesome trantulas, the females have and awesome color and get pretty big. if I find any I'll PM you but I'll probably find them in summer
