Hello!

Hello people of mantid forum!

I wanted to join this community because I'm interested in owning a pet mantis! I'm still doing research on which would be my first (leaning towards a budwing) but I would like to hear your suggestions! Where would be the best place to order one online? I've looked at various websites but they mainly have exotic mantids available. If anyone here is a breeder and would sell me one for a starter let me know! 

I'm excited to learn more about mantids and be a part of this community.

Hi welcome! I believe Mantid Kingdom has ghosts available and will be having Giant African mantids very soon too. Those are great starters. Bugsincyberspace.com has Hierodula venosa which are very sweet and get very large. Feel free to message me with any questions! Or post them on the forum, there are lots of knowledgeable people here ?
