Memorable Feeder Insects/Feeding Experience Survey

[aychen222]

Up in Connecticut right now, tons of moths all over. Here is a sallow moth that I just fed to Haunter. Suuuper juicy, transparent yellow meat, and very active.

Crane fly fed to Liddy. It was a huge meal for her, lasted well over an hour.

And here's a video I made of the first post. Warning:explicit language is used in the song, but I felt the song was appropriate.

The younger mantises gobble up crane flies....the eat each leg one by one, like spaghetti...

The Fifty had a yummy grasshopper today. I had to risk my life catching it in a bee infested tree lol

Took her about 45-60 minutes. She walked around her enclosure with it securely tucked in one raptor. When I originally gave it to her I'd opened the zipper to her house and cracked the lid if the deli... She climbed into the cup after it!

Benelli, my adult orchid eats the legs and antennae off of stuff like spaghetti it's sooo adorable.

A large katydid for the female D lobata.... I love summer, it's easy to find mantis food.

Wow that is big. Good looking meal.

That lobata is awesome. She's almost white.

Captured two Deidamia inscripta this afternoon. They're almost too beautiful to put on the dinner table. But Ponder, Orion and Twitch yelled and banged on the sides of their condos. So a banquet it shall be. Ponder is just days away from her molt to adult - maybe I'll wait until then as a celebration dinner.

Stink bugs, the mantises enjoy them, me not so much. Pew
