Is this a good permanent home for a mantis?

[Scythis]

It's an exo-terra faunarium 2265. Measurements are 14.5"x8.5"x10". Here is a picture I found on the net and a video review for a better look.

Those work for fine for me. Just make sure your mantid is able to get to the top.

Welcome. Those work fine.

Yes, give it some fake plants and you are ready to go!

You will also need a humidity holding substrate if your mantis is not an adult yet? Make sure your mantis is capable of climbing to the top. You could use sticks, fake plants, paper towel, netting, or mesh. I would also line the top with such things. The smooth plastic top is not the best perch.

This is perfect. .

I have a few of those reserved for when my nymphs get big.

I like these because they are long and the mantis has plenty of surface area

on the lid.

Be aware though that small feeders can escape from these.

Like fruit flies and small crickets and get through the lid with ease.

That's why mine are reserved for when my mantids are bigger, and their food is too!!
