Decimiana Bolivari is a species of South American dead leaf mantis. Females have that classic dead leaf turkey-shaped body. Males have long leaf-mimic wings.
This species is easy to keep. No special requirements other than frequent misting and lots of food. They are not very communal. Ooths hatch about 20-50 nymphs. I've already hatched 3 from this female so guaranteed fertile.
Decimiana Bolivari ooths $50 each SOLD OUT but keeping a list for future ooths. Should have nymphs available in spring as well.
Sibylla pretiosa are wiry little buggers! Half mosquito, half mantis. Not literally but...
Super easy to keep and communal. Ooths hatch 20-40 nymphs. Hatched 2 from this female so I know she's fertile.
Sibylla pretiosa ooths $40 each
Shipping will probably only be $7 for Priority but if it's too cold may be around $10 for larger insulated box and heat pack. All depends on forecasts and your zip.
Take $5 off for each ooth beyond the first, and feel free to mix and match. So one of each for $85, two S.pretiosa for $75 (plus shipping).
