Your pics are beautiful and your son isn't afraid of big mantids. Cool

Thanks! They're both fearless about insects. That's cool.

Ahhh she's beautiful...making me regret not grabbing a pair from Yen when he had them.

You think he needs to molt? 

This one just hangin' around. Eating.

[hysteresis]

That would definitely be life threatening!

Won't be long before I'm trying to mount a male on a female's back.

Crawled out of bed this morning to find my first male orchid matured, with wings!

I think I need to be sedated!

Males are SooOoOoo tiny! Thanks @Beramoss!

I have two adult females. I also have another sub male, and two nymph females for later.

I know these males won't be able to hold on for the nymph females. That challenge is for another day.

I'll give it my best shot. These two males are it. 

My spinys.. I have a female that I might find wings on tomorrow. The male has his wings. There are four more mixed sexes in the waiting as well. 

Ghosts are i6. So I have a wait for males. 

The panther female molted funny. She has a stank leg, and somehow lost a pc of antenna. I'm pretty sure she's sub, so we'll see. Both male and female are eating fine, so... 

The male mega will be en route tomorrow, so that's fun. I'll have another heart attack waiting for delivery, as usual.

I'm gonna be a busy dude.

She's a pretty bird. I'm glad she's not oothbound. Second infertile ooth.
