[QUOTE="Pelidnota Punctata, post: 350901, member: 13008"] It slipped my mind, as all these little guys are always super HUNGRY! Feeder control is sooo much easier with bigger mantids. It can be a real pain getting only a few (4-6) Fruit Flies from a 32 oz. culture with 1000s of the dang things doing their own thing (getting out/invading the house), in to a 16 oz. container the little ones are housed in. Sometimes way too many get in, which stresses/overwhelms the nymphs and keeps them in constant motion to avoid the excessive amount of flies. Suggestions? I presume his hardening was disturbed by too many flies. I made absolutely sure not to squish him whenever opening and closing his lid. Good one moment, mangled and crippled the next. Ughh. [/QUOTE]
