Ya. I was talking to him about a trade for some of his Heterochaeta and he sent me a video of the hundreds of net cubes of underfed mantises in a messy room. He also scammed me out of an adult pair of orchids, and I lost over $540…

Thanks!

This is a lovely stick mimicking species. They get absolutely giant, and have absolutely wonderful personalities.

Here are some pictures of this wonderful species. I highly recommend these to beginners and advanced keepers. They are so aggressive and absolutely stunning. Not only that, but they are some of the larger Hymenopodidae and both males and females reach a nice adult size. Enjoy 😊

Wait, can the bright light kill the nymphs?

Interesting. What do you not like about it?

This only works with certain species tho. I’ve done it with Creobroter and Pseudocreobotra, and seen it done with Acanthops, Pseudacanthops, Ceratomantis, Childonoptera, and many more.

Torching ooths is where a breeder takes a bright light and holds it behind certain types of ooths that have a thin enough outer foam. If the nymphs are developing, the breeder should be able to see little black dots that are the nymphs eyes.

This is a method used by many professional breeders to tell if certain ooths are fertile and about to hatch.
