Hey guys, just joined yesterday so here are the pictures of my newest edition!

 

[Katnapper]

Looks like she's a Stagmomantis sp. If you're from the Midwest, chances are good she's a Stagmomantis carolina.

Thanks! I am really enjoying him.

Thanks! I am really enjoying him.

:huh: ..but it's a girl! :lol:

What state did you find her?

 

[ReptileLuver729]

State? You mean the star thing? Sorry I am new to this

State? You mean the star thing? Sorry I am new to this

Er... I meant which of the 50 states? :lol: She's an adult

I'm just wondering so we can tell exactly what species she is.

 

[ReptileLuver729]

Sorry...Haha. I assure you that I did do my research, so don't worry! I just don't understand the star/age thing yet...And I got her as a rescue, but I am in Kansas. Since she's an adult how long do you think she has left to live?

 

[Rick]

Welcome. She is s. carolina. She may live a couple months or maybe even a bit longer.

Welcome! She is lovely. How long have you had her? She could possibly lay an ooth. One of my female s. carolina rescues laid an ooth for me a couple of days after I brought her in.
