Kids all grown ; (

Three of my four kids are now winged adults so time to find new ones. Any mantis being sold in or around the Connecticut area?

Just have to keep your eye on the classified... Most are shipped 2 day, and now with heat packs... so you can keep your eye open for what interest you..

Have you had kids shipped to you? I see folks say they have and it turned out fine. I'm so jaded and cynical I barely trust myself ; /

I haven't yet, but wouldn't hesitate to do it as many sellers offer a live arrival guarantee. Not to mention it is a busy section of the site, so there must be plenty of happy buyers.

You can find what you want in the Classifieds and then lookup the seller in the Breeder Feedback for past sales reviews. Or check out the forum sponsors (banners across top and bottom of pages) that sell mantises - BugsInCyberspace.com and Mantisplace.com. If you can't find what you want you could always post a wanted ad in the Classifieds.

Good luck on your pet adoption.

Ok thanks. At the least there's another reptile expo coming to white plains NY in January. That's where I get my kids normally.

Bloodtkr,

since joining this site ive purchased a few different exotics from some of our known breeders here. I (for the most part) have had no real issues with the buying and receiving of our beloved pets. Honestly just do your research, know whom you're dealing business with... Just like with anything else..

Yes, I have had all mine shipped to me... with great results... The hardest part is picking, which ones you want...
