Hello all, Recently had an Orchid ooth hatch (10/18). The ooth was a cross between Deshawn’s and Mantis101’s (first generation from Malaysia) stock. The nymphs are vigorous and ready for a new home!  I’m based in North Carolina, USA. Will ship anywhere in the continental US. Live arrival...

Interested in buying/trading for a late instar or adult male H. cornatus. I currently have three sexually mature females and would consider doing an oothecae trade if the logistics are right. Please PM me or post here if interested. 

Wow, those pictures are truly amazing!! Are Toxo's hard to find the wild? I've heard they are quite rare, or is it just due to their extreme camouflage? Thanks.

Received two batches of blue bottles in exellent condition. Thank You Rebecca.

The females have triangular shaped "shields" on their thorax while males have diamond shaped "shields".

Just received a beautiful adult male New Zealand mantid on loan. He came very well packaged and arrived the next day. AB also sent the mantid even before I had paid shipping! Thanks Ab :) PS: I'll keep you posted

Sounds like you have nice conditions for you mantis and it should thrive :)

The ghosts that I own perfer flying insects and are very easy to keep. So far, out of seven starting ghosts I still have all seven (knock on wood). I mostly keep mine at 80-90F in the day, but drop it to 75F at night. I bought mine from mantisplace.com for 15$ each.

Very nice pics and lovely mantids

Nice job Ab :) do you plan on keeping them together?

Sounds good. I just hope they don't ruin the franchise ;)

Cool. Im glad to hear that avatar isnt completly gone. I just hope they don't ruin it. Do you think it will still be made by the same people?

Wow. So are the movies going to re-do the whole series or something different? Will the movies be animated? Is Nick hosting them?

I have been watching the avatar series on and off sense it started and I have to admit I was impressed with the final movie. I cant believe its over now though :( I think i will miss it. I agree with andrew about avatar being totaly different from the ###### they show on nick. Did yall say...

I received Very well packaged Ghost nymphs and despite the 100 degrees heat they all made it safely. She even sent me 2 extras. I highly recomend her for supplies and for mantids! Thanks you!

I recieved 10 well packaged nymphs from AB. They were all very fat and had lots of food in there cups. He even gave me three extra nymphs from a different species!! I highly recomend AB and well definently do buisness again. Thanks AB!

Are you selling them at L1? Can they take Hydie at L1? Thanks

Thanks Kruszakus. They are a pretty communal Species right? All i need is to make sure they are well fed?

Hey guys. This is my Second post on these forums and i have a question. Are D. hydei suitable for L1 Wahlbergii nymphs? Also, will they survive iin room temps (75f). I dont mind if they grow realy slow due to temps. thanks peoples :)

Yeah, there seems to be alot of NC people on these forums. I guess its in our blood :P I actually live about 3 hours from Durham (in a little county called Currituck,extreme northeatern corner of the state) Thank you Rick, hello to you too hmmmm...Im not so sure but I am going to guess Ohio...
