Am I getting this right? This thread and it's members in it for the most part want to make a care sheet for mantids. Maybe for each different kind, or maybe a general one and then the species that are "different" and not kept like the norm can be made into their own...right?
But it seems that there is fighting, bickering, angry talking followed by smiley faces so you don't show that you ARE really mad whatever you want to call it over the chance that each care sheet might be different. There is a reason why there are hundred upon hundreds of caresheets on leopard geckos. They can be kept DIFFERENT ways, some keep them in plastic shoeboxes their whole lives, guess what they breed like a leopard gecko kept in a tank with sand and everything else that mimics their environment. Mantids are the same way! Nothing wrong with that. Keeping nymphs in a FF container might not be natural or mimic their environment, but its easy. Make a care sheet, telling the reader of this way, then a different approach is by doing this...blah blah blah. Easy enough.
Honestly though, I don't think everyone putting their input into a caresheet is going to work at all. I made a thread on how to raise FF's. If I asked 10 people to help me, we would be bickeirng over the amount of media to put in or if sunlight helps them to get special nutrients which transfers to a frog or mantid and everything else. Just make your own and post it up, if people disagree then who cares. It worked for you and you know this, because there is more than ONE way to keep a mantid which is perfectly fine.
