Oh Thanks! I was thinking of doing that, but I don't have Photoshop and my friend and I rarely get to meet up. I seriously want photoshop, all the other programs suck.

It's here, notice how the cricket's antennae is down in the original and how off to the side the pic is. Look very closely at the pic and you can tell the difference. The mantid's head and the cricket is a big give-away, I think it was edited pretty well.

That's exactly why I fed it a cricket, plus they can take on the crickets with no problem. The houseflies stopped coming because it's too cold now. Well, we took the picture of it and the background is actually a bunch or drawers, baskets and a green chair. This is a picture edited with NO...

This is done was done in Adobe Photoshop believe it or not. It was done by my friend Tamatha and myself. Took 4 days to finish, we basically just pasted the picture in the background and colored the mantis until it was all white,yellow and a little bit of light green then mixed in a few colors...

Thanks for stating that and not going "NUBZ0R DUN U N0 FLYTREP EET UR BUGZ!" The camera is a L18 Nikon COOLPIX. It's pretty good and it's cheap. He bought it for $134 at best buy. I'm pretty sure you can find better ones.

Hopefully if you find a male let me know. I don't want her to go to waste.

My L. minor I caught from camp just turned into an adult female today.

yeah that too.

Yeah, When I first bought it, the plant was small but had alot of traps, I wondered why it was so crowded and when i went to repot them I found out that there were actually 6 individual rhizomes in there. This is one of the 2 that I let flower. I cut out flowers off the other 4.

I'm glad you got the mood! EDIT: Here's another one for when my dad secluded me in my room.

Here's another I drew in English class. The Dorthy Parker poem really got to me.

That fake scorpion is so totally gonna tear your mantis apart, you should remove it NOW!

That's the way it's suppose to be done. That's why they call it Art. It took me 10 minutes because I was watching Spongebob :P I don't take it personal though Frankie, you and I are like the Soda and the Can. I thought it would give it more of the "feeling" so I drew it with that particular...

Their size is so annoying, but they look cool.

Heck yeah, another Carnivorous Plant lover. I live in Long Beach too! WELCOME!

Haha thanks! This is the first 10 minutes of it. I'm finishing it up right now.

OK, so I'm just really bored right now so I took 10 minutes to sketch this. It's a zombie kid who has just lost his pet mantis. What do you think?

Humidity on the outside has a slim affect on the mantids ability to molt. It's the amount of water they drink prior to a molt. During it's pre-molt, you'll have to mist it not just for humidity, but so it can drink it. Of course it has to be in a high place with good grip for it to properly molt.

I went camping at Lake Perris in Southern CA and stumbled upon this. It has been ID'ed as L. minor .This one is a female. I'll get more pics later, gotta let the batteries charge up.

USPS also pushed up the shipping rates, well at least in my area.
