so remember Ive been looking for egg cases.... well
I found a white mantis in a bush today shes REALLY big in the abdomen area so I took her home all excited Ive never seen a white one before.
well tonight I was sitting in the animal room looking for moths and it seems a bright green and red male flew in my window.... HOW CRAZY IS THAT.
2 in the same day and oposite sex. I havent seen a mantis all year.
anyways why i need help is im not sure exactly what the female is doing I put her into my tank with the unhatched egg cases just in case shes about to lay one and shes laying at the bottom of the tank perfectly strong and reacting to everything around her but shes just laying their on her side her butt is up against the plastic of a plant cup and shes breathing really heavy o.o is she ill? is she laying? im not so sure what to think lol.
also im trying to figure out how to figure out what species they are since they obviously came from outside they dont look anything alike the female is really big about 8 to 10 inches long and pure white shes got green eyes perfectly triangle head and shes not thin at all shes got wings and no spikes no patterns
the male is small skinny and has red on his pinchers legs and edges of his wings hes all bright green
with big black eyes perfectly diamond head no spikes straight wings and hes really playful and flys like madd lol.
hes a great glass climber lol
