The other day my female chinese, Soothslayer, tested out her new wings for the first time when she decided to fly over and land on me. I always get a kick out of watching my chinese mantises' leg dangling attempts at flight, and less than graceful landings. :lol:
The whole thing got me curious about other member's experiences with mantis flight? Any funny stories to share? Having mainly kept chinese mantises, they are the only ones I'm familiar with. I know some of the lighter smaller mantises can be rather good at flying and wondered if members who have kept them had noticed they had more of a tendency to fly around? Also has anyone ever had a mantis fly when chasing down its prey?
