[QUOTE="CollinR, post: 309064, member: 10047"] I really appreciate everyone's responses! I'll try that. I have some BB Eggs and I've been able to get away with feeding her moths because we're still getting them at our lights at night despite the colder temps. So she's been eating full sized moths just about every night thankfully. Just about all of my other Mantids (Devils, Flashes, Megarea, and Lined Nymphs) are eating FFs and the L5+ Mantids (Rainforest, Rhombodera, Ghost, Giant Asians) are eating Dubias. Surprisingly I've successfully been getting my L3 Venosas to eat small Dubias which fills them up much faster and may help them get used to catching larger prey at an early age (I noticed when I would feed the older Nymphs FFs they would be unprepared for a Moth or Dubia because they are a little stronger of a feeder). Thankfully they learn to quickly adjust and acclimate to that. I'll try those experiments with Noelle and see if she bites (literally). Thank you everyone! [/QUOTE]
