[QUOTE="Orin, post: 3401, member: 10"] Mantis inbreeding reproductive inability is an extremely common myth (somewhat like females eating the males head as a requirment to remove breeding inhibition). Mantids are not easy and most people can not keep them going for more than one or two generations, if that, so they use the excuse of inbreeding. As you become very experienced with mantids (takes many years by definition as even the fastest species take time to go through many generations) the inbreeding myth melts in the face of reality.
