mykey14,

This was answered before in 2 different posts. I've been ripped on before, I kinda felt singled out because everyone was against me. I can still hypothesize on what might happen. We all really have different theories. Your name was not mentioned so therefore you were not "Picked on." So if you felt attacked you did it for mentioning your name.

I did this for a reason

angelofdeathzz,

I really liked your answer, it is what I was thinking when I first wrote this post. It is a complete straight forward answer and says exactly what needs to be said.

MantidLord,

That is a good question. The plural for mantis/mantid can be mantids or mantises. Manti is a completely made up word for the plural of mantis/mantid. But I like manti better!

Thanks to you all for answering to this post. The answer as been said "LOUD AND CLEAR"

its a very simple question with a very simple answer

Q: can i release chinese mantids?

A: yes? or no?

but hey

it doesnt matter anymore
You want a simple answer? Here's your simple answer! Go ahead. Release an ooth or two. They can be found in Florida.

WHEN OTHER MEMBERS ARE RIPPING ON ME

THATS WHEN I BACK OUT
Are you Joking? I got mixed up with a site!!!!! After some research, I found out I was wrong. I corrected the error!!! I try to be helpful. I really do. I am not happy that after I make one mistake, I am a bad guy. I'm done. I've had it. Anyway, hope you do well with your chinese mantids.

I prefer mantids as opposed to mantises, just my personal preference. I just notice that a lot of people assume it's manti. I always crack a smile when I hear someone say that. It shows that they don't know about them, not that they're illiterate (for example if someone were to say "irregardless").

 
i just got 4 chinese mantids (lvl 3-5) and one died during shipping, mismolted, and another has two tweaked rear legs which he cant use, and another that is bent up and can only use one raptorial and all of his other legs seem to be ok,but his abdomen is bent and his thorax is bent slightly to the left, the last mantis cant hang upside down for some reason.

so all of this on top of someone starting a topic about me has kinda put me in a :poop: y mood.

sorry if i offended anyone, im just disapointed with my new mantids being fubar.

the guy i got em from hasnt responded to any of my messages yet ethier.

im so disappointed today :(

Sorry to hear about that. Was the person a forum member?

If the person's a forum member than you can PM him or leave feedback as Hertarem45 said.

 
The feedback is not used for what a member tells u to do, feedback is for someone who sent/sold u something and u r telling the forum your experience with them ;)
Wait I'm confused. Isn't the feedback area supposed to be your review of purchase? :huh: I'm still new.

 
They do mismolt a lot... I've had several get their back feet stuck. I watch them pretty closely and if I catch it soon enough I seem to be able to mist them free of it and they end up okay.

I will have some L2 sinensis nymphs ready to go this week if you'd like some.
