hi my names rob, i grow orchids mainly, but have just started to get back into insects and what not, 3 years ago i was realy into insects, but for some reason i lost the heart for it and stopped...
but then my brother was watching a creauture comforts episode (the one with stick insects and it prompted me to start keeping insects again, makes me thing why i ever stopped in the first place!, i think also i got a bit overun with my stick insect last time which put me under alot of stress, what with school and work and all.
but this time im just keeping the stick and mantis types that i realy want - not just collected them like before. i also keep beettles,land crabs, and other fury things. but gardening and my orchids is where most of my time is devoted.
i have also started with mantises again, 3 years ago i found them a bit difficult, but i was young and didnt really understand how to look after them properly. but now with more exsperiance my new stock is doing really well - im currently keeping H.membranaeana (not spelt correctly) and what i bought as H.grandis, but i doubt these are actualy the true species as they are not in culture in the uk, as i have been told, which im a little peed of about as the seller shouldnt have labeled them as this.
