Giant African

Caught a chunky fly in my house today, fed it to my 4th Instar Giant African mantid. Wasn't to sure at first but she got it in the end, almost took her for a flight though LOL

There is a tough little nymph!

I like when they take down large prey, as long as it isn't biting and kicking. :lol:

Wow nice catch. What species is it?

It was a blue bottle fly. Big and hairy, lovely!
