ah ok lol idk how hard international sales would be but i do plan on looking into it once everything starts taking off. i think once i have saved enough money and i can have enough room to do proper breeding and data collecting ill look into getting some other mantis species. I have a whole list of inverts that i plan on keeping with plenty of room for expansion. Also plan to do custom enclosures for people but will test out that idea when i find a good local glass cutter. Big plans for the future
Look into acrylic as well as glass. For small enclosures I much prefer dealing with acrylic. It is more durable, significantly lighter, and can be cut using a laser very easily to give more complex designs. It can also be glued using acryclic cement/weld which makes a great clear seam. Downside is that it warps under heat and can scratch if an abrasive is used to clean. I am in Colorado and have some references for cutting acrylic in Northern CO if that is helpful.
