Shield mantis

Don't be disappointed if they're very skittish at first. My adult female basalis almost drew blood twice. They had the death grip on me.

Unfortunately they didn't make it through shipping  hopefully I can get replacements of the species.

There is no reason they should not make it in shipping. Dont be discouraged.

Something happened during the process which made it take unusually long. Once it warms up a little more in a couple weeks he'll send replacements is what I've been told.
