[QUOTE="Mystymantis, post: 345181, member: 9416"] Depending on what mantis you get, roaches are a really good alternative to crickets. They do not smell, are easy to breed, and are much healthier. I recommend the Red runner roach, also known as the Turkestan roach [I]S. lateralis[/I]. Red runner roaches are very similar in size to crickets and do not have many of the issues crickets have. The only problem with red runners is they do no climb plastic or hard surfaces. So if you have a mantis that needs more active or flying foods they don't work the best for that. [/QUOTE]
