Hi everyone,

it's been some time since I posted any photos. I've been quite busy with some of my new animals and haven't had the time to really shoot any pics of my mantids.

I also just got in a really sick female Crested Chameleon that has Gout and is probably gravid (with eggs) and the original owner couldn't devote the time and money to help her...so she is taking up a lot of my time now that the rest of my new guys are doing great.

so don't expect much from the following photos. I just wanted to show some quick pics of a few of my babies.

Looking at your ghost photos makes me salivate! I just ordered some and should get them in a couple of weeks. I enjoyed your fantastic images. :D

thanks for the kind words.

yes, you will love the Ghosts that you are getting in. they are clearly my Favorite. they are just so much fun to have.

I can't even keep enough of them. my friends are getting hooked on them and sold off half my stock as a result. in fact, I'm probably getting another batch of them in soon as I have so many friends at the local petstore who now want some. they are just amazing.

Great pics, and such beautiful mantids. I really love Ghosts, as well. I just love to watch them wiggle and dance and chase down their food. Mine always turn to look at me and start to dance around when I get close. :D

don't you just love how they dance for you? I can't get enough of it.

sadly, mine seem to stop dancing as they get older.

if I find a video of them dncing, I'll post it next time.

They are something! Especially the new born, cant keep them in a container at all :lol:
I wanted to photograph my Gems I got from you. but the silly one I took out thought he was a grasshopper and would not stop jumping. in fact, if you think ghosts are crazy once they get out of a cup, let's not forget Creo gems...they are nuts. :blink: :p

Aw, I hope mine dance for me forever! I just love how they wiggle. And when they spot another mantid, they start to dance even more. They even got my male mio dancing! :lol: You should definitely get a video of them dancing. Mine are too small for my cheap camera to record.
