I've been lurking/stalking care guides here for awhile, so it was time to finally sign up, hah.
We started keeping mantids this year after buying some T. sinensis oothecae at one of our local nurseries back in March. After they hatched, we kept a couple (both we kept from that hatch are now freshly adults) and grabbed some other species. We now also have ghosts, orchids, and spiny flower (some wahlbergii and a lone ocellata). 24 in total between everyone. They're a handful, but never boring!
