what three mantids do any of you guys want to raise before you die? why do you like them? why are they on your list?
my bucket list is:
Harpagomantis tricolor- why? because it has it all great looks, rarity and a nice small package.
Deroplatys lobata- this is the mantid i thought all mantids should look like coming into this hobby. i love the size shape and color.
Gongylus gongylodes- the common name says it all 'violin mantis'. it is very graceful and big, whats not to love.
Empusa pennata: its so french if you get what im saying. and its communal!
