Thank you all for the information. I know this stuff is overly-detailed but I'm creating an online encyclopedia for everything mantid-related. Ismart, thanks a bunch!!!!

Helpful or not, still very interesting. How do you keep so much up there? :P

Also, I read through Yen's website/notes on this species. :)

Searching for the word "Acromantis" in these forums brings up 11 pages. I searched through 8 of those pages and was unable to answer the following: Ootheca Incubation Period: 30 Days? Hatch Rate: <Avg. Number of Nymphs> Avg. Time Between Oothecae: <Average time between each...

Thanks Rick and Kat

Mass production of anything comes cheap but at a greater cost. TV's for $500 that break down in a year or two... so cheap and unreliable it costs just as much to fix one as it does to simply replace it. Fast food, chinese-made Walmart goods, $5 sandals made with the hands of enslaved...

I'm just... blown away.. dead.. emotionally today. I bought Finn on Tuesday but picked him up last night. I wanted to wait until Friday so I could give him 100% of my time and attention all weekend long. 45 minutes after bringing Finn home he had diarrhea. All night he had diarrhea but he...

They are all watching you... do not show yourself or they will move in on the target... so says the mother ship. PS. 227A9 <--- decoded = wear your tinfoil hat.

Very cool info, thanks Phil! Bad news is, on my lunch break maintanence came and pulled the branch off of the tree. Appearently, some of the girls (and smokers) who go near that tree were afraid. Oh well, I suppose if I were determined I could shop around at the local forest preserve and find...

Cool, thanks Rick I figured it was okay but wanted to check in with you guys. You are right about the bright colors... that's a general rule for all animals in nature.

Found a nest of these worms. Silk worms? not sure what they are. But, they are free... and I imagine a big huge bucket with a bunch of holes poked in the top along with me misting and throwing green leaves in there would sustain these guys. The question I have for you, my lovely friends :P...

Same here, had some kind of a flat looking bug and the top of it was very hard. He kept tapping on the hard shell with his raptor claws and... no go.

Took 2 hands to lift that beautiful catch huh?! ;)

Not much of a cat guy myself but I've seen some cats get along really well with dogs. Depends on the personalities I think.

Wow, I'm surprised by some people. I thought Rick was a lot older. Dunno, I think probably because he seems real knowledgable and because he's been in the hobby a long time. I'd love to see what Phil looks like. He's such a cool guy, I bet he's one of those charming types. :P lol...

Thank you very much for serving!

Newest member of the family and well.. the only other member of this 1-man family lol... his name is Finn :)

One word describes Yen's packaging, the quality of his mantids, his communication with the buyer, and his attention to detail: PERFECT.

Ahhh yes, a new day! :)
