[drymantini]

Hello,

I'm a writer from Boston and just got two ghost mantises (mantes?) — my first mantis pets. They just molted into L3s and enjoy devouring fruit flies. Just thought I'd introduce myself and see if anyone had any tips for rearing these delightful murderers.

Thanks,

Rob

Welcome .You can use mantids and mantises for the plural

Welcome. The proper term is 'mantids.'

Welcome, they are easy to raise, easy to feed and keep, just keep at room temp that's comfortable for you and mist them each day.
