I got my first mantis this week! An L3-L4 ghost mantis with quite an appetite. Here's some video footage of him relaxing on my finger and another of him munching on a fruit fly.
EDIT: Wanted to slide in a question: I've read that you can usually determine their sex with certainty after L4, however is it possible to discern before that? I noticed Zorak currently has an asymmetric crown typical of a male adult ghost mantis. Is it possible that in later molts it might become symmetrical revealing that Zorak is a female ghost?
