Hi everyone,
I never did introduce myself when I first stumbled upon your forum in a panic. I am brand new to insect keeping having started only in march on a whim. Hubs and I went to an aquarium and reptile show and while there we first met the orchid mantises and phasmes-jungle nymphes. I was immediately enchanted after having been scared and disgusted by insects my whole life. Ended up going home with a pair of orchid mantises and a pair of jungle nymphes. They're all so amazing , that they've totally changed my relationship to insects. I guess that just shows how much of our fears are just fears of what we don't know. Because once I got to know them I came to love them. AMAZING creates, am I right? Anyway, so thankful that this forum exists as I've had a couple of scares with my girl and had no idea what to do. Thanks to all who share their wealth of experience and knowledge.
