[QUOTE="petoly, post: 222828, member: 6297"] they are back together, it's kind of hard to control their mating. these guys scurry fast, I can't just align them like a normal mantis. This is probably part of the reason they are so finicky to mate. There have been quite a few times that I thought I lost them for good with them escaping and I mean literally JUMPING out of their enclosure while I was doing maintenance. I now make sure I move the enclosure to an area clear of clutter or anything they can hide under above, around or whatever before I clean them. hopefully they mated. I'm still not sure if they have. Heck I'm still not sure if they eat since I NEVER see them hunt LOL. I know they eat since they are always fat but still. these guys are excellent hiders of their ways. I think they did mate though. The female does need to lay and it seems like she's struggling to do so. [/QUOTE]
