First ever praying mantis hatching

[Martin]

Here's some pictures from my first praying mantis hatching. They're regular Chinese mantises. It was pretty exciting when I saw all the babies. I didn't see them coming out, not sure how long it was before I saw them.

Congrats on the hatch ! I wouldn't say they are 'regular'. i would love to keep chinese mantises!  But here in Australia, we can only keep native species  don't take them for granted  . We have purple wing mantids witch are pretty close, but they are very difficult to find and nobody breeds them.
