Near Adult Rhombodera Pair

Mantids are getting quite big now. First time keeping these, are they close to adult/breeding size?

Sorry for pic quality, will post better soon.

They will be ready when molts are the last and thye have wings. Wait a few weeks before breeding them.

Thank you. Excited about getting these 2 together, and want to do things right. =)

Good luck on the mating. Hopefully everything goes fine.

Just moved the female into a larger screened enclosure with plants, which is kept outside. Misting a few times per day. She seems happy, as judged by her looks, energy level, and appetite. Updated pics soon.
