[QUOTE="melonberries, post: 334808, member: 11627"] Hello! Long time amateur naturalist, first time insect keeper here. After finding a lovely female mantis in my apple tree a few weeks ago I got attached and decided to adopt her (having a spacious terrarium lying around to use). I still can't ID her species but I found an ootheca when I got home today! Please excuse my lack of knowledge on the hobby and correct me if I unintentionally do anything I'm not supposed to, as I'm still researching and I wouldn't want any avoidable harm to come to my pet regardless of her being in the last few weeks of her life cycle. Gertrude says hi upside down (bad photo quality sorry). I'm thinking either [I]S. californica/limbata[/I] or [I]Iris oratoria[/I]. Thoughts? [ATTACH]12731._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
