Finally got an Orchid nymph!

I've been wanting to raise one of these for a while now, and I already love this little nymph. I know they're notoriously fragile, so here's hoping we make it to L2 and above!

Good luck! It's a cutie ❤

Super cool!  I didn't even know L1 orchids were red and black until I saw this video:



I kind of wish there was a mantis that looked like that full grown!

I do too! Part of why I went ahead and got an L1 was so that I could snap a few photos of that coloration before it molts away.
