I've returned! Had about 10-12 mantises before (some of them caught in the wild) ended when my last Spiny died. I want to raise some orchids, but open to other nymphs that are available. Please email me! [email protected]

Hey dude, Sorry for your loss. I actually had a Chinese, (which I named Scyther as well... So much for originality I guess) but she died because of mismolt. I've actually seen you post quite a bit in this forum about both your mantids. That sucks that scyther got necrosis. I hope you get more...
