Hey everyone!
I have to admit, I've been a longtime "lurker" of this forum even before I became a member. Realizing that my interests in mantids (and other inverts like phasmids) has grown it would be appropriate to start being an active part of the community.
Thanks to Vlodek I got started with P. wahlbergii, and recently MikhailsDinos and leviatan for their awesome P. spurca, M. binotata, and P. paradoxa!
Before getting into exotic species, I found my first mantis - a S. carolina. Since then I've found an ootheca or two in my area of the state and am currently working on rearing a couple hundred nymphs on my days off of work.
Glad to be here and thank you all for providing a great community where one can feel welcome and learn a lot from the experienced people!
