    Grimm15

    Grimm15 is the best breeder I have dealt with. I ordered 12 ghost nymphs. There were no Express Mail boxes at the post office, so he had to send them Priority. As a compromise, he sent 16 nymphs plus a ghost ooth. 15 survived the two-day trip (one mis-molted). Every mantid was in its own...

    Adult Female Ghost for sale

    I want to sell my female ghost before I have to leave on a business trip in the next couple of weeks. I have never sold a mantis before, so the sale will pretty much go to the best offer or most convenient. US only. I live in Massachusetts. PM or reply. I'd consider a trade as well.

    Adult female Ghost for sale

    I've actually never sold a mantid before, so I'm not sure but I think I'd be open to most offers that look reasonable. Please keep shipping in mind. I'd also be open to trade. I could send this Monday after the holiday and weekend.

    Adult female Ghost for sale

    I don't think I am going to be able to find a mate for her. She molted only a few weeks ago and is very healthy, but I can't find a suitable male. I can ship immediately. PM or reply if you are interested. I am in Massachusetts, US.

    As the title says, I have an adult female Ghost mantid that I want to mate. I am open to every option. If anyone has an adult male they want to sell, either I could buy him or you can buy her at full price or at a discount with the promise you'll send me the second ooth. Or if anyone wants to...

    Crickets making ghosts sick?

    I had to switch my main food for my sub-adult and adult mantids from flies and moths to crickets about a month ago because summer is over here in Massachusetts, and I used to just catch the former outside. Now I buy the baby crickets from a local pet store. One of my mantids began violently...

    Peacock ooth?

    I have two I. Lateralis ooths sent from Red in late February. Is it safe to say something went wrong and they won't be hatching? :( Everyone tells me to keep waiting.

    How I make fruit fly medium!

    I'm still experimenting, trying to get it right. My latest culture is: 8 tbps apple sauce 6 tbsp masa 2 tbsp lemon juice 2 pinches yeast My last culture had only one tbsp of lemon juice, and mold is forming pretty rapidly after just four days. Think the extra tbsp will fix that? Also, it...

    How I make fruit fly medium!

    DARKSPEED: How much lemon juice do you use (as a ratio to the other ingredients)? The vinegar is the only thing that bothers me about my mediums because it stinks up my closet, so I'd like to remove that if I could. I enjoy the smell of lemon juice, on the other hand. :) Also, I have to use a...
