site looks like its back up, plz help...

Well just like the title say, i have a few acanthops falcata and i cant tell which is which. They both have 6 segments, the only difference i can tell is that one is huge and eats alot and one is thin and eats very very little... Maybe someone can tell, because i took horrible pictures...

It really depends on what mantis you get, but if it is L5 or less on any species it looks fine to me. Mantis love greenery but make sure you get flight enabled insects to catch. Anything that doesnt fly hides so the mantis may find it hard to find its prey. I used to keep them with roses and...

Aaaaw i emailed you about some of those at like 1pm! never got a reply =(

If my Limbata ooth hatches ill mail you like a dozen! i like this species, there one of my favies =)

im not in the east coast but i can also help you out. Contact me if you need it, i too have your back.

one leg problem wont be nothing to a mantis =) congrats on the molt=)

they are wild insects, Ive ran out of food and have mantis live TWO weeks without food. In the wild they would have to wait for food no? and flies arent alwaz ALL over place no? mantis are made to wait a very long time without food, they are pouncers not prey. No need to worry really.

its either full or gonna molt, just let it be

your in california right? feed it! =) no heat or mist necessary for this species. there is a search button for this site, and there are tons of info on here about it, but if you caught it that means the temps and humidity are survivable granite your container has a lot of ventilation.

Beautiful Dog, Im so sorry for the loss and hope another dog can fill the gap =/

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME

Most likely a Stagmomantis Limbata, and to be it looks like a female nymph. Once other take a look at this thread they can say other wise, but i know thats the only wild(in the city) mantis i know of in cali.

Im 90% sure im wrong but imma guess Limbata female? Kinda hard to tell for me and without a location makes it even harder.

i handle mine everyday, sometimes i let them roam my room(for stray food if you know what i mean ;) ). Unless you squash them or throw them or something aggressive i dont think to much is bad... probably make um more hungry =P from the work out.

just so you know, becuase its a male and an adult male, itll eat like 1 large cricket a week, male adults eat almost nothing compared to females. Thats probably why you noticed its not eating, its normal for males and it looks pretty =)

and that looks like WAY to much lol

welcome new comer =)

in my own personal opinion i think creo's(my only experience is gemmatus) are one of the most powerful mantis gram for gram. They can hold on to anything and attack anything they want. I never worry about them, but paper towel is easiest for them to hold on to. To be honest, i try to put all...

i dont have any idolos or i would post 10 things on it =) I have other smaller species but no idolos ='/
