Hi from Al O

[aomantids]

Hi,

I actually signed up some time ago but I don't think I introduced myself.

My name is Alan Odermann, I live in Moses Lake, WA.

I've been a hug fan of insects since I was a little kid. Mantises are, of course, the coolest of the cool. Now that I have a little boy of my own, I've got into raising Mantises like never before. I've raised Chinese, Carolina, and European Mantises a few times and have successfully bred them. Then, last year, I discovered that exotic mantises were available. WAHOO! So, I've expanded my raising operation. My first exotics (well sort of) were three Texas Unicorns - all female and adult now. I'd sure love to find a male!

Thanks,

Al

Hi Al, welcome to the forum, hows those kids doing?

The kids in my son's class loved the mantises. I've heard back from a couple of them this summer.

I'm anxious to show his class some exotic mantises this year.

Thanks,

Al

Welcome to the community. I would like to try my hand at raising unicorns myself someday.

It has been said that a unicorn will only eat from the lap of a virgin and that is why they are so rare. Here is a pic of a unicorn who has just discovered his mistake:

LOL! That's awesome! BTW Welcome to the Forum! Glad to see another mantid enthusiast. I cant wait to get some more exotic spices and breed them as well.
