    Does he have a website? I saw people were impressed with stuff they had off him so wondered if he had anything I'm after. Ta.

    Quick stroage question

    What's the best way to store a Europian mantis ootheca and how long for? Is it just a case of stick 'em in a paper bag and put them in the fridge? It'll probably just be for a couple- 4 weeks but may be a bit longer. Would this be ok for them? Cheers folks.

    pictipennis ootheca

    How long should one take to hatch? I've had one now for quite a few weeks. It's in my invert roon at a temp of around 75. So far, I think it's been there for about 7 weeks but I'm not sure. May be a bit either side.

    Still trying H. grandis

    The female moulted out about 6-7 weeks ago and the male was on 6th Aug. She is dead fat with food, he is on a bit of a diet. Temp it around 78-82. The male shows some interest sometimes but not very often. He has twice jumped on her. The first time resulted in the pics in the "Foreplay"...

    Foreplay ?

    Trying to mate H. grandis. He's either kinky or or very confused... So far I have sat watching for about 3 hours and he still hasn't coupled up with her. Had to seperate them and will try again in a bit.

    Mating H. grandis

    Is there anything in particular to do with them, eg. temp, humidity, etc...or is it just a case of bung 'em together and let them get on with it?

    Metamorphosis

    I've had quite a few dealings with Graham Smith from Metamorphosis and every one has been great. Very helpful and friendly and loads of stock. Well worth a phone call.

    sweet Jars

    I dunno if anyone else uses them so I thought I'd mention it. I have been using sweet jars [the ones from a corner shop] for years no to both keep adults in and to hatch ootheca. I cut a section from the front and back and glue some fine netting over the holes and put some over the top. Some...
