here's our first mantis, tenodera that we hatched from the ooth. really easy to handle, great temperament and an intense hunter!

Very nice! ;) I know how proud you feel to raise them from birth to adult, much more than if you buy some L2-3 nymphs, somehow you feel like they're truly your's. :)

thanks all. it was a lot of fun. the fact that we had such few casualties made it even more exciting. the funny thing is that of the 100s from the 4 ooths we hatched, i can find NONE in the garden - i raised most to L3 and released. can't find a single one...and there are plenty of bugs to catch..
