Ordered a male gongy from ghozt. He threw in 2 males (adult) and 4 free nymphs (L2ish). Unfortunately the Post Office sucks! Was available for pick-up on March 28th, but they didn't send me the slip til' April 9th, so everything was dead. He packed it up very well with heat packs and nice...

Got cha ;-)

How did you place the dividers in the middle? Would of been great if you had pictures building it step by step. Looks really Nice though, now you have me thinking o_0 lol' Where did you get the shelf from?

Ricardo, I find gongies quite tricky to sex at the young stages... I thought I had 2 females until rather recently when i noticed one had feather antennae and the other was short and thin.. Do you have any pics of the little guys?

Spore, these are AWESOME! Some of the nicest enclosures I've seen so far. I love the idea of using different colored pet bedding along with colored flowers. I wish those aluminum mesh cages (2nd pic) were made of a finer material where FFs wouldn't be able to escape from... that would be the...

Heh' I just brought in some branches with yellow flowers on em' for the gongies. What do you plan on feeding them mostly during the warmer months?? I'm thinking butterflies since they are full of nectar and easy to catch with a net. ;-)

Sorry Ricardo, I havent gotten around to that... I'm going to Jersey in a little while, and will be back sunday... I'll be sure to get them for your sunday ;-) Deb they are indeed awesome little creatures! Cant wait til' next month... butterflies, moths, wasps, flies... everything they love will...

Awesome!

I'll get some shots of that tomorrow for ya ;-) I believe they live longer than what the "usual" mantis lives for. After taking a lengthy time to mature, the female lives for quite a few months after their last molt.

Your photos are beautiful! I miss my Creos, must get some in the future!! :-)

thank you thank you :-)

Ricardo, I believe the male is subadult, and the female is pre sub. If you want them to grow keep them WARM! Thanks Debb, I used the GH2 to photograph these. I didn't have a true macro lens when I shot these, so hopefully the next pics will be better with a real macro ;-)

heh thanks. Yeah I love that shot too... the eye looks crazy! lol'

Thank you all for the kind words. Believe it or not, but the male is actually fairly light... the darker one is the female ;-)

Thank you, thank you :-)

Pics of my male and female Gongylus gongylodes... Let me know what you guys think ;-)

If you're doing it more for the looks, than the scientific part, then I'd say go for it... definately an interesting conversation starter!
