Assignment 1: Reasoning for choice of micro-culture Describe in a short paragraph (150 word minimum) how you expect to find benefits from the highest-rated characteristics in your research: Ironically, I find my community quite straightforward. By sharing information, struggles, and triumphs...

I am now going to start adding my journals and assignments to the thread. Journal 1: My leading candidate for my project is The Mantidforum! My major advantage to this is the fact I have been active on it for nearly a year and have an understanding of its regulars. I know the ins, outs and...

They do not appear to be asking questions, but rather seem to be introducing themselves.

Honestly, I've found ghosts do just fine at a 50-60% humidity. For nymphs, they won't eat for a few days before and after they molt. It's perfectly normal behavior. Did you sex your own ghost mantis? He may not be male if you just used the segment method lol. Ghosts have unique sex dimorphism...

Super excited to announce I am going to be attempting to recreate Alex's gutloading experiment this summer with grizzled mantis nymphs! I believe this will be a good way to introduce myself to rearing as well. Grizzled mantises in their younger stages are known for being delicate and I want to...

They haven't had a chance to do anything because they weren't aware that they could be part of this hobby or even of it. I did a collaboration with them here BECAUSE I want to support my fellow hobbyists. They have good deals and have been nothing but kind to both me and Alex. As for the forum...

Rebecca does sell quality stuff!

Alright so I'm linking my Instagram because dear Lord I am not messing with this site's image features. I was lucky enough to be able to do a collaboration with a small business down in California called Rainbow Mealworms. I know some of you guys have probably heard of them and maybe even...

I don't recommend USmantis since they're a known scammer. This is just my opinion, but even if you have received quality stuff in the past from Craig, it's better not to support him. With money or otherwise. He's pulled the wool over a lot of people's eyes in the hobby and isn't changing anytime...

I’m young and from the Midwest. My reading comprehension isn’t much better lol. It doesn’t help I have the memory of a stoned wombat.

All this fuss over a piece of meat? I wonder if she was hiding her kielbasa in the vegetable drawer to keep roommate A out of it. Someone stashed it in the drawer.

I wish we could do this with human children. Just throw them in the desert heat and let them reach adulthood within a few weeks lol.

I've never heard of that. I do hope you're not feeding your mantises those crickets though.

Yeah those aren’t banded crickets.

Send pictures. It’s very unlikely they’re banded crickets simply because most pet stores don’t sell those.

The crickets I presume? Are you using banded crickets? Those are quieter and are resistant to the diseases the domestic cricket carries.

I choked on my coffee watching this lol.

Anyone can be an artist. Some of it is patience and learning to be okay with where your progress is at. The majority of it is rage quitting and threatening to set something on fire. I didn't get to where I'm at without a few murdered drawing and busted pottery.

Cockroach having the time of his life.

Then we could afford all the mantises we want. TwT
