I'm pretty sure it is the same people, but the best deal would be messenging them on facebook. (I actually compared across platforms)

I get my red runners from sgvmantid. Highly recommended. I used to buy from them on ebay, then I got smart and found SGV Mantis on Facebook and I got the quantities I actually wanted for much cheaper.

These are some of my generation 3 females.  I am going to have to take some photos of the nymphs and adolescents from generation 4.  Currently, they all just look "dark" in my zoomed out photos of the communities. 😅 I provided MantisGirl13's experiment with ghosts from a black female, and she...

I'm on my 4th generation of breeding for black ghosts, and at this point, almost all of them end up dark browns, dark reds, black, grays. 

Kalamazoo, Michigan USA Hello! I currently have ghosts i2-i6 availible.  1 is $15, 3-5 is $13 each, and it goes on from there.  I also have fresh (3/22 or later) adult female venosas (yellow wings, greenish yellow head, pink/red chest, as well as just green) availible and molting to adult...

Hello, I am in west Michigan and looking for adult/older sub adult male ghost mantids.  I have 3 females that are my second generation, and the males that I had either passed of old age or mismolted. I would like to see how long I can keep this liniage up, as these females are from my first and...

Looking for 1 or 2 adult or subadult male r. Basilis shield mantis.  US only, please.  Thanks! 

Does anyone have any adult male orchid mantids availible? After pretending our male didn't exist over this last week, our female decided to actually make him not exist.  Located in Michigan, USA

I got a variety of nymphs from Yen Saw, and he sent multiple extras of everything.  He is very careful packaging them to ship.  A very easy transaction! 

Awesome seller! Thank you for the lovely orchid! 

I didn't even realize the water spots were so bad until we switched over and started cleaning them off! 

So, has anyone gotten a permit? 

It may not help in this case, but I found out the hard way that some small nymphs need distilled water because even the minerals in spring water will kill them.  (We lost some spinys that way). 

Thanks! Here are some of my more recent photos. We currently have 24 mantids, mostly ghosts and spiny adolescents. I love big mantids, but thus far 3 mismolted, and the 2 I recently ordered died from exposure to cold from shipping. 

Thanks! I wandered over here from Mantis Keepers on facebook; it seems like a lot of people frequent both forums. 

Got one, thanks!  I am looking for an adult or sub adult female orchid mantis. I'm in Michigan in the US.  Please let me know prices, or email me at [email protected].  The email is a faster way to reach me.  Thank you! 

Hey, I'm Ashley Hochstein.  I'm in west Michigan, originally from Detroit, Michigan. I don't work, as I am disabled and struggle with lupus.  I totally loved all bugs when I was younger so when I encountered a wild mantis religilosa right before a freeze, I absolutely had to bring him in.  That...
