Hello! My name is Megan and I'm from Kentucky. I sorta stumbled into the world of praying mantis as pets this week! I was planning on buying a dried specimen for a Christmas gift for my nephew (He's super into insects) and saw all the information available for raising live mantids and thought it would be perfect. As I did more research to understand the care of these cool insects, I became so excited and now I'm going to be starting to raise them myself!! I don't have a mantis yet, but I'm working on it! Thanks!!
