Mantid nymphs getting bigger!

[macawlover2]

Not sure how to tell the difference between my lineola and multispina yet, so if people could give me some distinguishable features of each, that would be great!

Anyway, I have 8 mantids from Rebecca currently (no not all of the rest died Rebecca, some went to friends!), about 3 months old. I can't believe how big they're getting! Ok they're still pretty small... but considering they were barely large enough to see when I first got them, they've grown a ton!

I'm still a newbie to mantids as these are the first ones I've ever owned/raised, but I love them and love the forum too! Thanks for answering my many questions I've had.

The multispina have stripes on their legs and the others don't!
