[QUOTE="spike, post: 350924, member: 13746"] i feed roaches in 2 ways, method 1, crush the head then offer to mantis on tongs. roach will wiggle for a bit which will get the mantis attention, but the movement is no longer well controlled so the roach can't sneak off and bury themselves if you or the mantis drops it. (there's about 15 minutes of decent movement) method 2, place a small cup in the enclosure (2oz portion cup, or 8oz deli cup) drop the roach into said cup from as high in the enclosure as you can. ussually the initial drop will get the mantis attention, and it will also ussually make the roach start running around the cup looking for a place to hide.
