Goodbye everyone...

[maneatingmoo]

Well, my mantids both grew up, and I know they die in the winter, so I released them. I didn't want to see them die. I put one on our big flowering asparagus plant, and one on a tall bush. I came back a few hours later and they were still there, but now they're gone. I guess I'm not going to be coming back here any more. I'm going to get a snake to replace them. It was pretty cool watching them molt and eat and grow up. So, goodbye everyone.

Bye, at least you had a good experience through keeping mantids

Thanks for saying goodbye! We'll still be here if you change your mind. My reptile collection has grown by 500% in the last 3 months. I'll never stop raising mantises, but the lizards eat roaches too, so it makes it pretty simple to keep both. (well, our cornsnake eats pinkies).

well, i hope to see you sometime again

maybe next spring? seasonal keeper?

Bye. Make sure to come back if you ever get another mantid.

 

[maneatingmoo]

If I get another one next year, I'll come back. It would be cool to have a tiny baby one and raise it.

if U need a boa let me know I still have some babies left lol!

 

[maneatingmoo]

Ah, thanks for the offer but no thanks. I've already decided on a corn snake, got all the stuff already.
