    Pelham Bay Park

    I didn't recognize you when I purchased them FFs from you a while back, but maybe this summer we can team up on the mantis hunt at Pelham. I agree aswell with the "shady characters"... might sound crazy but they do witchcraft and voodoo back there... ive stumbled across there ritual remains, and...

    Pelham Bay Park

    Im surprised we've never bumped into each other since we share the same hunting grounds in pelham ;-) Tampa has plenty of spots, pretty much any wooded area will have lots of grisea.

    Flying Fruit Flies

    right. Ive done this with non-flying cultures before, and the nymphs definately do that. It definately takes the headache away of feeding for the most part

    Flying Fruit Flies

    I was asking about the Flying FFs because when you have a lot of nymphs hatching and have them in a large mesh cage, It's easier to use flying insects to insure their food gets to them, and like Hibiscus said, i would let the culture grow on its own and maintain itself in the cage.

    Is it Ok to feed exclusively wild-caught?

    the best stuff for mantids, just make sure the feeder insects are being captured in a place free of pesticides

    going to hawaii want some mantis

    Funny, that tortoise clip is from PlanetXplorer, now if you check PlanetXplorer's profile, it states he's 45. Unless you went from 21 to 45 in a day then there's no way this can be you. Either way if your 21 with gray hair like the guy in this video then I don't know what to say. This is my...

    going to hawaii want some mantis

    Im not usually big on making responses here but I honestly think this "mongo" is fishy. Might not be a scam artist, just a young kid who's trying to appear older. His spelling is definately not there, making errors on the simplest of words (not saying I'm all that great). His voice can be as...

    Unicorn Mantids L5 Eating Maggots (Video)

    Niice. I just sexed mine, and it seems I was mistaken, they appear to be male & female. An obvious way to also sex is with their antennae. 1 of mines has thick antennae (male) and the other very thin (female) ;-)

    Metal

    Awesome species. I love the colors, however dislike the legs lol. (The legs remind me of water bug legs x-)

    Flying Fruit Flies

    Interesting, Yeah I think I'll start using them for the species i tend to grow communally so all I would really need to do is get a good prospering culture with some decent sized holes inside a mesh cage with the nymphs and let nature play its roll until the culture is wiped out (which should...

    Unicorn Mantids L5 Eating Maggots (Video)

    Ah I see. At that age this species is fairly easy to sex, i keep mine in clear containers, so when they're well fed the abdomen is pumped up so you should be able to count the line segments rather easy with them. When you do let me know what you have, if theres a spare male i'll buy him off of...
