    Mantis ooths for sale

    This is the classifieds, not the Polish breeder/seller feedback. This has gotten way out of hand.

    Has anyone ever tried Damselflies/Dragonflies?

    I was looking at my Big Book O' Bugs (https://secure01.virginiainteractive.org/shoppingcart/DCRimages/insectsandspiders.jpg) and I came across the Dragon/damselflies section. There are some beautiful species! I know of a few that are abundant near the lake where my grandparents have an RV, you...

    Zoe Is Irritated.

    The phone is paid for by neither me nor her. It is paid for by a grandparent. No, we do not pay rent. And no, Ryan never does take a stand for me. He's the "non confrontational" sort. Also, my support network is my grandparents and then my dad, but he lives an hour and a half away, therefore...

    Zoe Is Irritated.

    Okay, you guys now fully have the rights to tell me whether or not I'm being a stupid whiney teenager or are my frustrations legitimate. The story is that Ryan's mom, my mother in law (MiL for short) has racked up $1200 in cell phone charges somehow. She bought 4 new phones all in the same...

    Got some good pics of my one Chinese nymph, Cricket. And this is Spazz, one of my Giant Asians. She's rather pretty, and huuuuge! And this is another S carolina nymph, directly after hatching. Their eyes are black for the first day!

    New pics! Alright, first off. I have 5 S carolina babies so far. It's been hatching since 2-18-10. Here's two "Baby's First Meal" pics. And now for a tragedy, a mismolted Giant Asian. My first mismolt, and honestly, one of the more interesting things I've seen. Also, for kicks, my...

    I got roachies!

    I like Phil's idea of calling them "soft-nosed snuggle bugs, distantly related to ladybugs". It puts a smile on my face, even though roaches horrify me.

    First Witnessed Molt

    Well guys, last night I was able to watch one of my Egyptians molt from start to finish. It's such an interesting process! Of course I took like a million pictures, but I am not on my own personal computer due to brand new limitations, thanks to Mom in Law. Lovely woman. :angry: Anyhoo...

    Zoe's First Hatching

    Well, no more activity from the ooth. I have just the one baby. Sighhh.. Maybe the rest of the ooth is a dud?

    Zoe's First Hatching

    Seems it's a good time of year for hatchings! Maybe my S carolina will be next.. But today I discovered 6 little mantis nymphs in the Chinese Ooth cup. Well, uh.. There was one survivor. And I've decided to name it (ironically) Cricket. I've never been so proud! My first hatchlings! There...

    Don't you just love wasps?

    When I saw this thread I thought for sure you were kidding. Apparently not. To answer your question, no, I do not love wasps, in fact, things that sting are my phobia.

    Your view on Toyota...

    My mom has a huge white Toyota Sequoia. Not sure the year. I like it because it's big and makes me feel safe, but the whole gas prices thing is a no go. I prefer my bike.

    New pic of Blaziken, he/she molted and still has the wonderful colors. I'm so glad (s)he kept the colors! So lovely! Also, one of the Giant Asians that I have yet to name. I love how you can see the little mouthparts!

    Phil, I do believe you're slowly drifting into the "horny old man" category!
