if your just going to breed them for pets, no need to seperate, just put feeders in the single cup and let cannabalism take most them until you have enough to continue the cycle. If you want to sell them, after L2, everyone gets seperate cups.

What? lol.

Im staying at 1 gram lol it looks as thought all other 1.XX is taken =P

A+ on this breeder, very honest and gave me updates when asked. Best packing that ive seen so far and even fixed a problem i had without question. Thanks again GreenOasis

+1 on that, good luck and good job.

for easy cleaning, i would put it upside down, cut the bottom off, and about 3x3" on each side, tape bad one side of foam for a feeder door and to add the nymphs, then put mesh on top and 3 other sides. thats my idea =)

Rick, do they eat the oatmeal? should i blend the meal to a powder? I like to use paper towel rolls because i have a lot of those and use egg crate to mail the crickets.

So i read about cricket care, and most say to have no subtrait. I find regular dirt, to mask the smell pretty well! Heres the thing, im sure there... STUFF, is building up and its going to start getting smelly and all. I was wondering if there was another bug or insect that could maybe eat...

Snap-snapish-snappy-snap!!!! =) Now that was a well thought out 3 paragraphs, i just wanted to add that i think most people dont remember to add/fix/remove feedback when needed. If i knew what kinda deals people where making... =D i think i took the low road on that. This thread is basicly...

That seems really fast from mating to ooth, i would keep it but i wouldnt put money on it being fertile =/

B U M P !

I have one now, Popa Spucra Subault male, that tries his damnest to climb the wall of the cup! he will try for hours even though there are stick next to him LOL. I dont know why he doesnt eat more with all that arm workout! =P There beat it ^_^

1 gram even

Wow, not one person posted or PMed... I thought with all the photos goin around these parts i would get one person who has a backup picture of a budwing ^_^ At least tell me if what im asking is ludicrous or wrong or right or in need of PAPER =P Come on people! Help a brother who doesnt have...

I dont know Philinyuma, What has some good points. Awesome debate, i wish this wasn't taken personally because i would love for this to go on. From what i read, gather, interpret I personally think any breeder/hobbyist is an amateur that does not photograph, report, graph, and keep track of...

Well there are plenty of threads on this, especially in older "breeding" section. But just so you know, just because the male mounted, doesnt mean they mated. Males can sometimes stay mounted for TWO! whole days before mating even starts!!! Impatient breeders usually blow on them to snap the...

Bump, Still need some pictures.

Bought an ooth from guapoalto049 (Chris) and will post back when it hatches, FYI: A+ on packing, communication, and prompt.

Ive kept 10 in a smaller container than that without cannibalism, you should be fine. Just make sure there is plenty of greenery, they love green. If they can blend except for hunting there shouldnt be any deaths. Just use common sense, if they start getting older and it starts to look like...

depends on what you want to do with the mantis, if you want to breed and hatch nymphs, adults are obviously better for that. IF you just want to raise them(like most of us), then nymphs are better. Like you said you become more attached to it and see what it goes through in life =)
