Hello everyone,
I've finally gotten myself registered. Thanks for the help Ian. As it turns out, I'm more of an idiot then I was previously willing to admit to myself.
Well, I never really thought of myself as a "bug person", but two months ago I found a mantis in the parking lot at work, and since then, I've been hooked. I'm pretty sure Little Manny is a Chinese Mantis, but I have no idea how old he is. He's molted three times since I found him (although I've only been able to watch once). Right now he is 2.5" to 3" from tail to big ole buggy eyes. I'm pretty sure I'll be getting more mantids in the future, and I'm very happy to have found this forum as a resource as I'm sure I'll have many questions about habitat and feeding in the months to come.
good to meet you all,
chris
