Garden Center Oothecae

[lionsden112002]

Where do Garden Centers get their ooth's?

I bought some oothecae from a garden center in the Kansas City, Missouri area. The label reads Garden Ladys- 541-584-2756. PO Box 502 Elkton, OR 97436.

Both ooth hatched and at the time I didn't know enough about care, housing, feeding, to catch and keep the very young mantids. The Chinese I am keeping now may be from these but I have no way of being sure.

They likely go out and find them. Chinese ooths are easy to find in the winter.

Hi Hi bisucus ,

You did reply. I wanted to post the addie of the place my mantids may have come from to see if I had any genetic offspring of anyone (including you) on this group. You and I where discussing this in my thread about keeping a Chinese Mantid named LU...

Thanks, (so you didn't send to this farm?)
