Hello,my name is Lou,
I've worked with Tanzanian flower mantids about 12 years ago.I've always loved watching the way mantids behave and knew that I would get back into them one day.It's been a while so I would consider myself an expeienced noob.I recently received 4 L1 indian flower nymphs.I forgot how fast these guys grow. They are now 2- L2s and 2- L3s. I've been bitten by the bug again and look forward to working with some other species.I've raised Dart frogs and other amphibians for about 10 years.It's an addictive hobby and now that I'm back into mantids,I can see this hobby is too.I raise ffs and other feeders for my frogs,so extra mouths to feed are not a problem.I'm glad I found this community,and look forward in growing with it.
Here's one of my nymphs a day after molted into L3
