I'm looking for some more dart froggers on this group! I seems that there is a fair number, just curious who has them and what species! I've got a trio of E. Anthonyi "Santa Isabel" and a duo of ranitomeya imitator "intermedius". I want to branch out into some more thumbnails once I get the...

So I had had some trouble getting my hands on a not mite infested source of fruit flies, and managed to stumble upon this guy. I met him at the Hamburg pa reptile show and let me say, he's awesome. His darts are decently priced, healthy and he deals with thumbnails too! And his has a really nice...

I'm currently looking for a few ooths from smaller species mantises. I really would want to get an Acromantis formosana ooth the most. I love those guys. But pm me for offers! I live in the US.

So, back in 2007 I opened this account to get a better idea of this community. I was a geeky kid in high school taking care for some wild caught Chinese and European mantids. I ended up branching out because of this forum. I raised mantids for two years before I went to college and had to stop...

I have four males of the Acromantis formosana (Taiwan flower mantis) species, two adult and two subadults. But the thing is, I've never had a female of the species. After seven or so mantises, they all ended up as males. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone in the US had a female (adult or...

Okay, I finally got my hands on some orchid males, courtesy of Aiko. (I'm so grateful to him. :P ) So the males jumped to it as soon as they saw the females, happy and well horny. The first pair mated three times... took them nine hours to finish. The other pair just started mating...

Okay, I have an adult female and two adult males. The females has been an adult for around two weeks and the oldest male around three or four weeks. I wanted to know when most people mate theirs? I've been looking and I really can't find the amount of time for the species, and it's been bugging...

Okay, I got this guy like... three weeks ago on my yearly trip to the cabins. I spent the whole five days I was there seacrhing for a phasmid of some kind, and luckly one day I found this little guy after molting. Since then he's been happy hanging out in his lovely net cage and eating bramble...

I finally got some pictures uploaded on photobucket, so I thought I'd grace you with lots of badly taken pictures of my "aliens." Mantis Religiosa (European Mantis) Adult Female (back) Adult Female (face) Nymph (L1) Phyllovates Chlorophaea (Texas Unicorn Mantis) Nymph Adult Male...

I wanted to put up a couple pictures of my reptile collection. Finally did a photobucket thing so I could. My leapord Gecko. Some of my Sandfish skinks. My turtles. Painted Turtles Red Eared Slider

Alright, I've wanted some stick bugs for a while, really really bad. But the thing is, I've never kept them before, and I have no idea what the heck they eat and where to find it. So anyone that is a expirecnced with them, can you give me a couple good beginner species and maybe some info on...

If anyone at all knows someone, or has an adult male orchid can you send me a pm. I'm in need of a male for my two adult females. ( MUST BE IN US AREA) I will buy or trade for the male. (Probably send you one fertile ooth from each female if all goes well. More if the females are doing well.)...

Okay, I've had these ghosts for forever, and I really want some baby ghosts from them. However none of them what so ever want to comply. My female has been an adult for almost a month, her mates about anywhere from two weeks- four weeks. However this is my third time trying to pair up my...

I have a group of five Ghost mantids together is medium sized cage (moving to a larger cage soon). There's two adults (just molted), and three sub-adults. I was wondering if I should seperate them now or wait till they all molt and seperate the lone female? I'd really like some advice, I don't...

I'm searching for some subadult (or adult) female orchids or ghosts in the US area. (both would be wonderful!) I'll be gald to buy them off you and I'll most likely give you the second ooth she lays. Just PM me and we'll talk. :P

I'm in need of an adult texas unicorn (not to old please?), if anyone has one or knows someone that has one please PM or e-mail me at [email protected].

I have some Chinese mantids up for sale (Just give me some time, I don't send them out until they are L2's or older). I sell them cheap since they're native. They're a wonderful starter mantis and very smart to. :P I only sell to those in the U.S. BUT I CANNOT TAKE PAYPAL! You will have to...

Okay this has been bugging me for awhile, but which mantids can be found in the wild in the U.S.? I know there's the chinese, european, grizzled, the two unicorns, and the gaint asian. But that the extent of my knowledge. Anyone know any more?

Okay I posted something about the babies hatching yesterday cause I opened the ooth. Well they hatched out fine and I have 50+ at the moment, I think there's gonna be more. But I wanted to know, when should I start feeding them and when should I start separting them? Any help and advice would...

Out pure boredom I decided to take a look inside one of my chinese ooths. I picked up the one that should be hatching soon and pry open the very top layer with my nails. Inside I'm greeted by a two little wriggling bodies. Everybody else I saw wasn't moving. Now I'm very surprised, so I go to...
