Have several requests regarding feeding moth to mantis, so here sharing the way i prepare the food (moth). I don't use moth as staple food but just to add the variety.
Actually Chuck did most of the work by rearing the waxworm to cocoon (sp?) and have everything in one large sheet (you can buy them from www.spiderpharm.com) full of cocoon, then i cut it down to several smaller pieces and drop the smaller sheets into each mantis cage, wait for it to pupate. Sometimes, waxworm may escape from the cocoon .... ekkkkkk. Yep that's it, simple eh :lol:
