    new cage

    I like the idea of door on the side, because they are always clinging to the top. And it looks like a well made, well ventilate, good cage. :) I do have on question though: why did you guys decide to make the door opens from the bottom? I think I might personally prefer being able to lay the...

    This newbie is really impressed with Mantid mentality

    Well it depends what you define "intelligence" as right? Almost all our "vital functions" are controlled by our brainstem and cerebellum. And it is big because humans are big. Mantids could have all the control over their limbs that we have in a much smaller package. But probably...

    Unknown sickness - bubble on head?

    How long was it like this? I mean, mantids are close relatives of cockroaches and roaches can live without head for a week or so. Maybe your mantid was kind of dead already. Just living without a head. :shock:

    Cameras

    Well, Canon is the best. I was just trying to avoid trying to prove my opinion ;) It is hard to convert anyone from the equipment that they use because of the huge costs associated with selling lenses, flashes and bodies and then re-buying everything. Because of these inherent difficulties...

    Mine Molted!

    My two B. Mendica mantids molted over the past two days :D very cool! I have been worried about mismolts because of how everyone talks about them. But I guess mantid news, like human news, often is based on the outliers. They both molted at night though, so I did not see either. Maybe I will...

    Fly Larvae

    I did call Grubco today. But the phone-person said that she could not help me, not even to try re-shipping the order. Apparently they "do not garuntee live delivery when the temperature exceeds high 80's." I had two problems with this policy: 1) Their promise to attempt redelivery twice...
