im reading ricks thread...very nice work by the way rick..lokos like u know youe stuff..how long u ben doing this?im wondering if u can help me..i have a gaint asain mantis female which hasnt got her wings yet..i was hoping u could look at a few pics and time it right so i can get a male il need to buy one at the right age so it all works out fine..seems like u know your stuff and im new to all of this..

 
In general, no it cannot be done with any success. Different kinds of mantids that are similar can and will mate with each other but it will not produce any viable ootheca. The two I mated are very closely related so it MIGHT work.
