just dropped in to say hi and see how everyone is doing some of you will remember me some of you won't but hello all the same (:

Thanks everyone! I'm not far away its just my life right now dictates my time, so I'm taking a small break from mantis for a bit, I'll be back you can bet on that! You guys have all been so great, wish I had the free time but a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do sometimes lulz...): Like Arnold...

Woods aren't very good since wild mantis like to sun themselves for part of the day, they like garden beds where bee's and flies go for the pollen and nectar. No crime in taking a ooth or 2(don't take them all) and tying it to a tree/shrub at your place to get to see them again in spring... ;)

Should have feed them and left them together, he probably would have re-connected, a male can look fine today and then die of old age the very next day.

I would suggest looking at some of Precarious photos, he's the best and many are close up macros.

Welcome rocky mountain (; To the forum.

Welcome friend, but as far as your want ad, Orchids are really not for beginners as 99% of newbies will shortly be left with a mantis that they can only pin... Budwings, creo's, basically cheaper mantis are far better for a rookie to start with, not that many people listen when told this but...

Hey there Jude! How's my favorite beautician doing? Drop me a line if you get some free time (:

Interesting, but I believe just because your married or with someone doesn't mean your DEAD, lust is a natural human emotion, you have to keep it in check but as my wife tells me "you can window shop as much as you want but you only buy from my store!"...Love that girl!!! ;)

Hey Tammy, My family and I are still enjoying the beautiful calender you sent, hope your still having fun on all your travels. Glad to hear the Gongy are treating you right, shoot me a PM if you get the chance. (;

I've done this with as many as 3 wild caught ooths at a time and I did see hundreds of little nymphs all over my yard but the following year I only found 2 adults over the coarse of several months, in short they will go where they want and chances are it won't be your yard, but hey its still...

Ok I'll take the bait, I'm guessing y'all threw a mantis party complete with little tiny tea cups to celebrate my absence yelling out "hurray he's finally gone" ! :(

I don't believe love ever truly leaves you, it's like gum on the bottom of a table you just have to pop it back in your mouth to get it warm and gooshy again. :kiss:

Good for you Alex, everyone needs a little love.

Haha, you crack me up Andrew!!! But seriously I heard Henry was pregnant again, if this is true he's gunna need a bigger boat! :boat: I gotta get me some moon mantis, do they really smell like Swiss cheese?

Haha, Scott I know your bacon is always shaken! :P

Hey all! So what have I missed in my month or two leave of absence, somebody fill me in... Any fist fights, hair pulling or jail breaks? lol :)

Psychedelic hippie mantis, sweet!

Heat the males 10-15 degrees warmer than the feamles for a few hours, mist well, then put the females in the hotter male tank with some flys last of all, in a day or 2.
