Cloud the Dinosaur King's Mantis Collection

[Cloud the Dinosaur King]

Hello. As of now, I have no mantids, but I do have a Stagmomantis carolina ootheca and 4 back up oothecas in my yard just in case this one doesn't hatch. This weekend I am getting some new pets, a few mantids, a Green Basilisk lizard, and hopefully a Whipspider. I am going to get whatever they have there. Last time at Repticon they had Heterochaeta orientalis, Gongylus gongylodes, Sibylla pretiosa, Hymenopus coronatus, Phyllocrania paradoxa, and Sphodromantis lineola. I am hoping that they have Heterochaeta orientails, but then again that was the first time I saw mantids there, so they might not have any.

That's awesome that you got that many ootheca. My Carolinas are producing them one after another right now. 4 so far. Already sold one. That's exciting that your might be getting some at the show. Hopefully you can find some cool species!

Looking forward to updates.  Hopefully the show has what you want again; that is quite a nice selection that you listed!

Sadly, they didn't have any mantids at Repticon. I am hoping to get a pair or ootheca of Deroplatys desiccata soon though. I'm not sure where I'll get them however.
