Question concerning my Idolomantises

[Colorcham427]

Right now I have 5 Idolomantises. 4 of them are L6 and one of them molted to L7 just a day ago. Question is, I have them all in their own "live monarch" 1 ft sqaured cube net cage. Are the little holes in this cage big enough for the Idolo now that it is L7? It moves just fine, but just curious... Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I would hate for the little man to loose it's grip during it's next molt!!!!!!

Those cages are perfect. I have the same ones. Many including me have raised Gongys in them which are similar.

OK cool, thanks a lot for posting quickly... I did NOT want to have to use a chameleon screen cage.

I am keeping idolo for the first time too so I may be wrong but it seems like these cages will work fine. I am using them too.

Check out USAmantis.com (Yen's website) it has some tips and logs on keeping various species. I'm sure Idolos are in there.
