    Empusa pennata care sheet?

    Does such a thing exist? I was gonna keep them like idolomantis but I’ve heard from some people that they might need to overwinter. Has anyone ever kept them from nymphs to adulthood? Has anyone ever bred them? Thanks

    Cheap Bulk Adult Enclosures?

    Cheap Bulk Adult Enclosures?

    Greetings from Edmonton

    Hello! My name is Jacob and I’m a third year biology student at the University of Alberta. I recently got a Chinese mantis and have fallen in love with mantids, and I’m looking at growing my collection. I’m excited to learn and interact with the community!    Cheers
