just thought i would share a picture of my chinese male mantis who became a adult a few days ago and he is posing for his viewing audience!

Great photo. :) The way you've taken it makes it look positively enormous!

 
well had to make sure i got the right angle and all that as the big fella did not like standing still for very long but got the shot at least and he is definitely a kewl mantis as I always thought the native mantis was boring and bland and just too plain for raising until now when comparing them to some of the much more non native or exotic species!!
