I am wondering if there is a norm to future adults mantis. Many livebearers have a definite skew of sex ratio caused by temperature. Generally warmer more females and conversely cooler more males.  I am especially interested In Malaysian Orchid Mantis. If I raise ten raise, how many boys and girls? The theory for fish is buy 6. If the ratio is 50/50 95% of the time you have at least one pair. Often 3 pairs. I am interested in info about any species

 
There is no real ratio that we know of, but if you are planning to raise and breed I'd suggest getting a large group to start.
