Hello! New England beekeeper/new mantid keeper here

[drotski]

Hello, I am new to mantids, and I currently have 5 Chinese ooths incubating (most are planned for the garden, I plan to keep 10-20). I have experience with breeding rabbits, SW corals, FW angels, crickets and roaches.

I am a beekeeper, currently keeping approximately 17 hives (looking to downsize), in a partnership with my father.

I hope to expand my mantid experience/knowledge soon, and I hope to breed one or two exotic species.

Greetings and welcome to the forum

Sounds like I missed a lot from the edit.

No need to worry about the length - the more the better. If people can't bother to read something, they won't read it, so no worries. Just a sad state of affairs when people can't/won't read - makes you wonder about them reading books, magazines, the forum, and so much more.

I don't think Bloodtkr meant you talked to much.. I think he was tired with all you do...

We are all (anyway most of us) are here to talk... some of us more long winded, then others.... especially me!

Bee keeping must be awesome... I love honey... I hear they are really dwindling in numbers... a real shame... I myself am very allergic to them.. but I do feel bad for their decline.
