Hey Yen, can you give me some tips of how to keep them properly

I have them in 80-90F/>50% condition, mist every day, at least 70% of the food are grasshoppers, crickets, katydids and roaches, mixed with flies or any flying insects. works for me.Oh, use tall container to house them, I was always surprise how long they got after every molt, especially the last two molts. All the best to you, Kevin.

i used really tall pretzel jars for brunneria, those or a glass vivarium might work well B)

Agreed on care , I noticed with mine there femurs and raps are so short and if they happen to mismolt there in trouble unless your prepared to feed by hand if its a gal a male will be doomed from copulation , I noticed if I watch my humidity I'm good but what always confused me is my Ooths came from a friend in india were there found and in his area it can get so dry and rain very little infact this year he said was horrible for collecting nymphs to raise and breed he just did well with scorpions and other insects not a good year for mantids due to the dry spell but when there adults they are one of my favorite sp so enjoy and best of luck
