I dont really see how it is any different than what people do here. It just increases the market for the seller. /shrugs

 
lol When a box of crickets is around £2 it'd be a bit of an expensive meal. It's just another place to buy and sell. People can just as easy buy them on here. Have you still got the Tenodera you hatched Scott?

sorry matt..im not sure what your on about?tenodera..? u mean the chinese mantids?if u do mean that then yer i have about 30-40 left in a 2ft x 1ft cage at 2nd instar.tbh i would give them all away if someone could come and pick them up.its to much hassle trying to get 40 nymphs in a container..lol..i guees il just grow them up but im not putting them in separate cupse,.il leave them in the big cage with lots of food and wait till they get bigger..mantida said they have great personalities so im going to grow a few up to adult.soon as they get a bit bigger mayby L3 or L4 il sale the lot for dirt cheap or give them away as long as people pay postage.

im concentrating all my time and effort on breeding

Blepharopsis mendica

Phyllocrania paradoxa

Pseudocreobotra wahlbergii

Idolomantis diabolica

Tarachodes spec

odontomantis planiceps

i have a few more speices but tbh il be getting rid of them in the commmom months..the ones above are the ones im really interested in..

 
Yeah I meant the Chinese. yeah I have 19 left now. from about 60.Matt
imo there not worth breeding if u want to sale them....there only worth pennys..complete waste of time unless u just want to enjoy them..i wont be breeding them.
