Hi, Mantis People!

[FitzWallace]

I work at a nature center in central Illinois, and have been taking care of all kinds of crazy critters! Last year, I took in and hatched a Chinese Manits egg case & kept 5. None of them made it to adulthood. This year, I kept 30. Over the weeks, I let many go, and some died. I now have 6 left, 5 adults, and one with one shed to go. The visitors at the nature center love & are fascinated with them, as am I!

I'm very exited to find this forum, and have been cruising around, gettings lots of info. I do have a question: can you determine, other than counting, what L a mantis is at? How many L's are there?

If you are reading this, please visit the health section of the forum - one of my mantises is very droopy today, and I have asked for some advice. The topic is "Droopy Mantis."

Thanks so much. Nice to meet you!
