My sub female Taumantis never stops eating. She's so fat. Here she is next to my new sub-adult male from Rebecca.

I hope I can get them to breed. They're my favorite mantis so far. The females are so hungry and aggressive, even as nymphs, and their thoraces are transparent enough that you can watch the food go through as they eat!

You can sort of see on the male some black in his thorax. That is a moth that I just fed him before the photo.
