Hi from Orange, CA!

[ChavaWM]

Hello, name is Chava. I have been keeping mantids for about 2 years now! Right now I have a pantherina, a bark Mantis, 2 orchids, 1 Carolina, 1 Cat eyed, 1 violin, 1 truncata, 1 spiny flower, 3 unknown flower mantis, 1 cryptic, 3 amoenas, and 2 pairs of ghosts, ooths just hatched 4 days ago.

I also keep a couple of birds and crested geckos.

Never knew I'd be so into bugs, used to be terrified of the mantids arms growing up and now I hold roaches for them to eat lol

Can't wait to learn more from experienced keepers!

Welcome to the forum, that is a great and diverse collection you have! I stumbled across mantids unexpectedly too and never knew what I had been missing.
