    Tanzanian Pumpkin Green

    This species is possibly the oldest continuously maintained Spirostreptid stock (circa 1995). I remember seeing captive produced around continuously since that time but cannot verify new lines weren't introduced. Females grow to over 6" (for real, not the 2-4" common exaggeration on millipede...

    Giant blue Philippine Acladocricus

    I first saw these come in in 2005 (stock on cover is descended from the first imports) though they are one of the few things I've heard still come in now and then. Imports drop eggs like they're going out of style but it's a bit more to get them through a full life cycle.

    Synapze

    I saw some mantids available at a crazy low price and though it seemed to good to be true I placed the order. At best I expected some tiny babies, but got late instar nymphs sexed at 50/50. All healthy and shipped promptly. Very impressive.

    Bug Fest August 5th and mantids

    I have some tables at a big Bug Day Festival in Canfield Ohio on August 5th. I just realized I don't have any decently sized display mantids. If anybody has a big female of something that would make a cool display I'm sure the kids and adults would appreciate seeing it.
