[QUOTE="JettyDoor, post: 309156, member: 10510"] Howdy. I'm not new to mantises, we hatch them every year for the garden, but I am new to them as longer-term pets. Current critter count in the house is two cats and a handful of stick insects, and I'm hoping to branch out to orchid mantises this year. Was thinking about getting them in the Spring, since it's already mighty cold here in MN. Peter is an enabler, so now I'm giving myself a crash-course in setting up their food colonies and convincing myself I can get past my roach squick factor in the interest of not having stinky crickets in the house. I like the idea of using isos, but am not sure they're big enough for adult mantises. Suppose it depends on the size of the mantis. I'm terrible at writing introductions, so, uh, hi? :) [/QUOTE]
