Can anyone help pls im trying to find out how to keep orchid mantis housing, substrate, temp, humidity food ect...........I already keep mantids but i was fancying some of these but cant seem to find much info cheers............ :)

 
Just like any other really, whilst young they like a bit of humidity but not at the expense of good ventilation.

They are just as tough as most other species despite being pink and flowery!! although they will exept most foods they much prefer flying prey :)

 
Nothing special is needed for them. They are avery easy.

 
There was another thread pretty recently that was almost exactly like this. Search? ;)
That was my thread. Here is Yen's Care sheet along with another site. Except humidity does not need to be 80% and up.
