Technically not my first post but I wanted to make a quick introduction .
I started raising mantises after capturing a couple wild Europeans in my front yard when I was young. One of them even laid a fertile ooth, of course I didn’t realize this until I found them crawling all over my room one morning!
My first real mantis project was a Carolina ooth I purchased online. I got several of them to adulthood, but due to some mistakes and bad molts I was unable to try my hand at breeding. This is my second real attempt at trying to raise mantids: I purchased a half dozen Creos and am currently raising them through L2/L3. Hoping to learn some key info and share what happens along the way!
