Thsi is the result from not removing oothecae from this prolific species of breeding machines.

 
Im downsizing my mantids due to all the mis haps with males and fe,ales, although im gonna rebuild maybe next year or summut. anyway i was gonna try an easy species and was thinking of these ant mantids, what are they like?

 
They run really quickly as nymphs, move antennae really quickly, eat well, reproduce quickly, mature quickly, and are small. They need lots of moisture(At least that's what people say.), but temperature doesn't really matter too much. I can keep them around room temp. Don't know anything bad about them, exceppt that when small nymphs, beware of escapees if you don't look at them constantly when out of their container.

 
They were produced by 7 different mated females. Anyway, one hatched out yestedray, guess i will be swarmed by all these little black ant mimicry mantis.
