[QUOTE="happy1892, post: 238501, member: 5913"] Do you have long skinny pincher things to hold a moth infront of the mantis while it is fluttering its wings? Hold it by one wing. Because he is so skittish you probably cannot get close to the mantis with the moth in your fingers or get him in the mood to eat it. I would put him in a 32oz deli container and see if he is too stressed in there (he probably will be at first). If he stops moving a lot in a small container you put him in after 2 or less minutes I would put in some moths carefully to not scare him (keep the lid partly open). I would stick a moth's body with a long tooth pick like stick (much longer than a tooth pick) and put it close to the mantis without scaring the mantis while the moth is fluttering its wings.
