Mantis Food for Sale!
Hello MantidForum! We have a huge variety of small feeder insects for mantis, spiders, and other invertebrates, along with larger feeders for your reptiles, amphibians, and other exotics should you have them.​
This month we are celebrating completing our second year of business, and in that time we've expanded and culled our feeder selections for your pet mantids, acquiring a large list of smaller sized feeders for mantis, dart frogs, and other super small exotic pets.​
We have also made several caresheets to go with these feeders for your convenience. Below you'll find a list of our smaller feeders, with the first URL being a caresheet and intro to the insect, and the second URL being the link to the item.​
Lesser Waxworms

Mixed Springtails

Very small soil organisms that feed on mold and detrius. Harmless to live organisms. Great beneficial terrarium organism. Sold in cultures with coco fiber substrate.

Bean Beetles

Small beetle that lays eggs on black eyed peas, and upon hatching, the larvae eat their way to the center of the bean where it will eventually emerge as an adult beetle. Make fantastic feeders that are easy to keep alive for a long time.

Grain Beetles

Small beetle that is very similar to the Bean Beetle, but they prefer a warmer environment, inside of an incubator is good, anywhere you can provide a warm habitat with ambient heat. They are cultured on Wheat and Oat Grain, making them more nutritious in my opinion.
