[QUOTE="yankeeman1421, post: 304280, member: 9616"] The 2 main things with orchids, at least in my opinion, is not just high humidity but the exact right humidity as well as breeding them. I've never tried to breed orchids but I figured that's why they are so hard to get and come rather expensive. As for deadleafs, for the most part they could more or less be for beginners except they have a slightly higher humidity requirement. Now usually they are actually pretty forgiving if this isn't always provided however it is a must if they are molting otherwise they will assuredly mismolt, then again, that's with most mantids, give or take. However back to the orchids, I've never really had these problems but have seen others have issues like that, however what is interesting to me is their drastic sexual dimorphism versus other species and males generally do not live as long as females, but this holds true with most species regardless [/QUOTE]
