Hi, from a returning member

[Joe]

Hey everyone, My name's Joseph, Im 19 years old from Woodinville , WA and just starting to return to the hobby finally. After 3 or 4 years of just focusing on school, the only mantids i had were the ones i caught during camping trips. I used to keep 15 different species and was pretty experienced in mantids but since its been a while i dont know how much knowlege i lost. But now i'm back and really wanna get back into the hobby! there sure are alot of people here now and the forum sure has changed alot in appearance since the last time i've been on Thats all i can think of for now, i dunno on how to introduce myself too well and might of left stuff out, sooooo if you have any questions just ask me. Its good to be back and i look forward to meeting everyone here!

Welcome back. I believe I remember ya. Glad to have you back. Just because you're not keeping any mantids doesn't mean you can't hang around.

Too busy and too many other animals. I have been looking though. Seems mantis prices have gotten ridiculous.

Hiya, Joe! Nice to meet you. I look forward to seeing you around the forum.

Cool! I really want to get some ghost mantids too. I just have T. Sinensis right now, that I hatched a couple of months ago, but I'm looking forward to getting some other species, hopefully soon. So you've caught wild mantids on camping trips? Were you in eastern WA? I've heard of people finding them around here but I've never seen one.
