Hi! Frustrated Canadian here

[Bananagab]

Hi everyone!

I'm new to the hobby after I bought an african mantis at a pet store. Now I kinda want more exotic ones like orchids and violins but I can't find anywhere in this damn country that have some for sale

Anyway, happy to join the forum!

Hi @Bananagab. Welcome to the forum.

Where in Canada are you from? You were able to buy a mantis at a pet store? 

Anyway, thanks for joining us.

I'm in Quebec. A petstore in my area rarely get mantises and I was able to buy one before they sold out.

Welcome to the forum! I know some people ship to Canada, and if you get hooked up with @hysteresis, I'm sure he can share more info on acquiring mantids in Canada. He has quite a collection!

@Bananagab I heard you'll be receiving some nymphs this week.

Word of advice, once duties etc are assessed, pay them PRIOR to delivery attempt or there could be delays. 

Post photos once they're settled in, and join in the fun!
