Hi all,

I'm excited to be part of this forum. I am a mantid loving hobbyist and have several species in my care.

Welcome, @Jaywo! Tell us more about yourself and your mantids! How long have you been mantis keeping? What species do you have? What species are on your wishlist?

Welcome to the forum! Prepare to be relentlessly attacked by really nice people who love mantids just as much (and probably more) than you!

Hmm, maybe attacked isn't the right word, @ausar318! You don't want to scare anyone away!

Maybe you're right, bombarded is perhaps a better term ?. Anyway, i mean it in the best way possible.

@Jaywo, this really is an amazing site, filled with amazing people. There are answers for just about every question you can come up with, and people on here are very generous with the experience and wisdom they have gained over the years

That is better word choice........  

It sure is an amazing site! It has made a HUGE impact on my view of the mantis hobby, and I am not alone in my love for these amazing creatures anymore!

We can talk here about our favo insects and nobody here think it is weird?

 

[Jaywo]

I have many Violins, Ghost, Orchids, Mega Mantis, Boxers, Idolo's, Dead Leaf and many Flower Mantids and more. I love them all and they seem to be taking over my house slowly but surely.

 

[MantisGirl13]

Wow! You really do have quite the collection! They do tend to take over space very quickly! Do you breed?

Hi @Jaywo

Wow. Beauties. 

I'm very new to this, but one day I'd LOVE to have many as well! 

Thanks for sharing.
