Mantid eating schematic

These are my first Taumantis sigiana.  Of all the species I've raised, I've never witnessed such aggressive feeding habits.  These little guys will literally do somersaults and jump like grasshoppers to catch prey.  They're like cats -- fully jumping completely off a perch to grab a succulent moth midair.  So much fun to watch.  And they are gluttons. Always watching not to overfeed.
