I'm new to mantids

[maneatingmoo]

Hi everybody. I live in the Michigan Lower Peninsula. I mainly grow carnivorous plants. I've always liked most insects. I'm really new to mantids. I've never actually seen a real live one. I just started thinking that I want one, but I don't know anything about them (where to get one, what to feed, what to put it in, how long they live, etc.). Can someone please help me out?

Are there any wild mantids that I can find and keep? I have a 10 gallon terrarium if can find a mantid.

Hello and welcome to the forum, from OHIO! the tank you have will be fine, and you will be able to find the Chinese and Religiosa where you are I would think, check out the housing section on setting up your tank for them.
