[QUOTE="aNisip, post: 260523, member: 4612"] Sounds like an interesting experiment/research opportunity. However, in addition to the many many many many many many trials (feedings) you'll need to have a control group. And lastly (the most difficult) you'll need to be sure to use mantids that are at the same 'hungry' level. Wether it be feeding them all at the same time and/or monitoring their feeding amounts, it has to be replicable. And how much water they drink/be provided will also contribute to the 'hungry' level. My above information is part of what you'll need if you really want to credit this as real scientific evidence or just an interesting observation. I don't intend to be negative and support this idea fully, but have heard many a times people want to see green mantids vs brown ones and then after 5 mantids, they claim keeping them in certain conditions changes their color.... All the best, Andrew [/QUOTE]
