Alas sadness. Asoka my Adult female Grizzled mantis has passed onto the big mantis heaven. Rip Asoka, you will be missed! My little ninja mantis

She lived for a year and 4 months.

On a happier note, my Chinese mantises have started hatching!

I'm sorry about Asoka. I hope she gave you lots of ooths! Congrats on the Chinese mantises though.
