I was surprised to find no "other' entry for Brian but am happy to start one.
After a number of trials and tribulations, Brian sent me a package of bluebottles. They arrived on Wednesday, well wrapped and not as stinky as some BB pupae i have received. I 'fridged them on arrival (it's hot here!) set them out on Thursday, and they started eclosing today, so both I and most of my current batch of mantids are happy. I'm going to try breeding these on liquified chicken liver to get them to lay, but don't worry, Brian, i don't think that any one else will try!
