    Ridiculously photogenic H. Venosa

    AH! She is beautiful! She molted into an L9 yesterday. I don't have any good pics of her yet but here is one I snapped when I realized she molted and had grown again! Lol she's on my screen right now watching the letters pop up as I type. She is very interested!

    Ridiculously photogenic H. Venosa

    You should get an H. Venosa. They're amazingly sweet and they get quite big! 3-3 1/2 inches :)

    Hierodula venosa

    My H. Venosa does this too! Same as you guys said, when I open her enclosure and she's on the lid, she will lie flat. Lol. I love her so much. Should have got mantises a long time ago. Can't imagine my life without them now and I don't see a time I wouldn't have them for the rest of my life when...

    Ridiculously photogenic H. Venosa

    Rowena has so much personality, it's hard to imagine she's just a little insect.

    My girls have molted successfully!

    I am happy to say that my P. Paradoxa and H. Venosa I got from Mantis Monarch have both successfully molted into an L4 and L8!  I was surprised to see how much bigger my Ghost was after her molt! She grew almost twice as large! My Red Arm grew only about a fifth after her molt but including how...

    Lethargic L7 Red Armed

    By the way she's doing great now. I think I just fed her too much. I'm making an effort to feed her less and she's doing much better now.

    thoughts on this video?

    I physically cringed when he held it up in the beginning and the poor little guy just wanted to grab onto something. Oh god I was like yelling out when he was handling it and pulling on it omg. They will MOVE if you touch them gently you don't have to grab them like that! They're very compliant...

    What is the best starter sp. Of mantids

    I feed both mine meal worms. If you cut the segments small enough it shouldn't be a problem. They like the gooey insides! I have a L3 ghost and she's very small but she takes meal worm pieces just fine!

    Lethargic L7 Red Armed

    Hey I just wanted to know if it was okay if my Red Armed is a little lethargic. I gave her a large meal yesterday and had her out just a minute ago and me and my girlfriend thought she might be a little lethargic. She was leaning on us with her abdomen. I thought it could also be possible that...

    Mantis Monarch

    Just got my L3 Phyllocrania Paradoxa and L7 H. Venosa! Both females and they both arrived quickly and in good condition. Both ate and drank right away and are relaxing in their new homes! Great packaging! I noticed they were very careful to make sure the mantises were secure and safe. They also...

    Hello, anyone in Cali?

    You gotta let me know if it goes well with your mantis. If you have luck and I get my egyptian and ghost past their final molts I'll think about getting an orchid. :D  What other mantises do you have?
