Getting back into mantids

[Mantis_Whisper]

So, back in 2007 I opened this account to get a better idea of this community. I was a geeky kid in high school taking care for some wild caught Chinese and European mantids. I ended up branching out because of this forum. I raised mantids for two years before I went to college and had to stop. Now pretty much a decade later I really want to get back into them again.

It's so weird coming back and seeing most of my go-to breeders are barely active anymore. But I'm curious to see how the hobby has been going. That and I want to get some of the species I adored raising as a kid. Namely the ant mantis and taiwan flower mantis.

Now I have to relearn all the scientific names again and alter my profile again.
