    Taumantis sigiana, are these parthenogenic?

    Oh my goodness!!! I'm so excited! I thought my female Tau. looked gravid over the last week or so, but was thinking, "how is that possible, I know for a fact that she's never been mated?!?!" But lo and behold she was almost done laying an ooth when I left for class this morning! I'm definitely...

    Mismolt?

    So, I am sad to say, my Creo. pictipennis nymph passed away recently..I am thinking it was due to a mismolt but I am not sure, so hopefully y'all can provide some insight. He was eating great, but I think probably too much, because at a certain point he looked very full and was vomiting every...

    Screen vs. Glass Top

    So, I have a divided 2.5 gal tank that I am using for my two mantids (a creo and a mystery mantis)..I have both a glass lid that came with the tank as well as a mesh top that I made for it with plastic screening. The main reason I am wanting to use the glass top is because it is easier to...

    Preparing to molt?

    Well, the next time I misted he did get a drink..but when offered a fly shortly thereafter he just batted it and walked the opposite direction..he's hanging out on the top of the enclosure too..and I'm sure you're right, Rick, I've just never seen a mantis molt before, but from what I've...

    Just need to get something to put in them.

    I have one of those little tanks as well...would it be a bad idea if I were to put a Creo. pictipennis nymph in there by itself?

    looking for advice on housing

    I have a 6x12, 2.5 gallon, glass terrarium..I would assume that is too big for a small creo. pictipennis nymph? I currently have him in a small plastic cup with a mesh lid, I just want to make sure he has enough space and not too much...
