Hi everyone!
I'm a 17 year old kid from long island and this summers been killing me. I have nothing to do, so I figured i'd spontaneously get a pet. Something that would just keep me company. (inb4 pets need attention/care/etc..) I'm aware of this, and am proud to soon call myself a Mantid owner.
I ordered a european mantis nymph from the well known 'prayingmantisshop' website. I also ordered a culture of flightless d. hydei, and a single ootheca to place maybe in a separate environment from the nymph, or outside in my garden of beautiful flowers. I'm visiting my local pet store today and picking up maybe a 10 gallon reptile tank. Maybe you guys could give me some ideas of what to fill it up with.
After spending hours on looking over care sheets and what not, I feel pretty confident now, and I think I can sustain a few generations of mantids. I'm not too experienced obviously, but this will come with time, and hopefully from you guys here on this friendly forum!
Thanks for reading,
Kyle
