I just hatched some Stagmomantis Limbatas and have a couple Chinese Nymphs, Im wondering about when do these guys shed? Every 4 weeks or what? Any help is appreciated, Ive been searching the forum for days for this subject and finally gave up and posted my own.

Nope, was a stagmomantis limbata. The first one hatched in the trunk and I didnt get it till who knows how many days later, but I had found 2 survivors in the trunk from that ooth.

I had an ooth hatch in my room last Thursday and am still finding random survivors around the house. Mom found one on the whole other side of the house and I found on on the floor last night. They somehow survived a week without fruit flies, maybe they got other bugs around the house lol.

I know I know, sorry. He's trying to work with me now. Finally responding to my emails, thank goodness.

Thanks robo Ill remember to go to the feedback section before I send someone a message about buying their bugs from now on.

Dont "buy" free mantids from Veggie. I sent him 20$ for overnight shipping last week!!! And still have no bugs and NO response from him other than telling me to check again. He wont even tell me what company he used for shipping. All I wanted were some nymphs and all I got was a huge hassle!!

The USPS SUCKS at shipping overnight, these guys were sent Tuesday from Oregon and didnt arrive until 2 days later! It was next to impossible to get the tracking number from him until today but he had quite a few to send out apparently and had to find my tracking number. I have apologized to...

Im so glad that hasnt happend to me. My European female (Religiosa) would just STUFF herself she never did burst, thank goodness!!

I found a small flying male I oratoria last summer here in Northridge. I actually found him out late at night at CSUN by the film dept doors eating like a madman cause of all the bugs attracted to the light. I ended up releasing him tho because I couldnt cath him small enough food.

lol yep, poor little guys are all over my trunk, I need to get it back from the shop before I can clean it out. If I had thought about it at the time I shouldve checked the top inside of the trunk, maybe a few more were hanging out on top. O well, Im happy I found the few survivors I did!

Last year I found a VERY healthy friendly Religiosa, or European as you say. She was my favorite!! I had a few ooths but they havent hatched yet, Im not sure if they will. But yes I too have seen some here in the San Fernando Valley. I also found a stagmomantis limbata and a few others out here...

hmm, maybe when the car gets back from the shop I'll stick my Religiosa's ooths in there and check them EVERYDAY, lol. I really want those ones to hatch, Thor was the coolest bug ever! At least in my opinion she was, lol.

So last year I found a Mantis Religiosa, a Stagmomantis Limbata, a male unknown and another that died the same day I found him. The limbata and the religiosa turned out to be females and laid me some ooths. And I found a random one or two in our trumpet vine. Flash forward to the present...

Im already listed in here but I made a myspace page for my Sulcata Tortoise lol. www.myspace.com/usbob It makes it easier to share pictures of him.

Hey Yen, That was what I thought but I found my Stagmomantis Limbata in my back yard here in Los Angeles County, and my HUGE European Mantis at work, and the little male Iris Oratoria at Cal State Northridge. But apparently those were all flukes, lol.

So I know its silly but I made him a myspace page. You can go to www.myspace.com/usbob There are lots of pics of him / her on there. (still cant tell which it is)

I really dig the hexagon containers. I may have to get a few of them for my ooths. Where'd you say you got the lids? The same place?

She was ticklish lol, Id pet her back and she'd do that.

Right on Ian!! Good luck and for sure let us all know when it'll be on.

Does it stay on the curtains Alex? Ive often thought about letting one of my bigger girls roam free on a small tree I have in the livingroom, but seeing as we have Cat's it'd have to be my bedroom and I reeealllly dont want to end up squishing her in my sleep if she touches my face! Maybe Ill...
