    Hi From Charleston, South Carolina!

    Welcome Beau! I remember the empty nest syndrome. Hobbies are definitely an excellent antidote! :-)

    Favorite mantids

    My favorite is the Phyllocrania paradoxa, all of my females turned green. They are so pretty. And when I bred them, she didn't try to eat the male! LOL! That to me was a HUGE plus!  At a close second is the Deroplatys lobata.

    My first Orchids

    I have to say, I am very impressed, and I don't say that often. I definitely would put those up for entry in the calendar if I was you.

    Macro shot of Flower Mantis ... :-)

    Thank you! My husband is really good at videos. I am the one that keeps my Mantids healthy, but I have to give him the credit where credit is due, he does the filming. :)

    How's this cricket breeding setup?

    You're welcome. Twice a day. They start climbing the sides when they are hungry/thirsty. We also feed them "Repashy Bug burger powder". It's finely ground, perfect for pinheads. No, we don't spray them. They get their liquid from the squash. Anytime! That's part of the fun in learning it...

    How's this cricket breeding setup?

    Hi - We raise pinheads for our chameleons. We use moistened cocoa fiber in a 20 oz deli cup filled almost to the top. When the crickets have laid eggs in it, we put a vented lid on it to avoid gnats getting into it. Once a week, we spray it with water to keep it moistened so the eggs can...

    Macro shot of Flower Mantis ... :-)

    My Wahlbergii enjoyed walking around the flower and having a treat! I even have a shot of her licking her arms when she got done, to get every last drop!

    New macro video and photos questions

    Ok - no, even with the pop-up blocker turned off, it freezes and will do nothing. That is with either trying to bring the complete URL over from Photo bucket or from Facebook. This Browser window is frozen and I have to close out of it.

    New macro video and photos questions

    I always use the pop up blocker! Let me go turn that off and see if I am able to do it then. Usually it asks if I want to allow for the site, so I didn't even think about it being the problem. Thank Digger.

    New macro video and photos questions

    I apologize that my post wasn't more clear. Happy, the video is pretty short. I tried uploading the link from Facebook. And yes, from YouTube. Y'all can see the video on our Facebook page "Crazy Eyes Chams" One thing I didn't mention is that my laptop is 8.1 and my browser is IE11. Not sure if...
