Hi
I am new to this forum but have been keeping bugs and herps for almost my whole life. I recently got a male and a female giant african mantids. They are both adults but I do not know exactly how old the male is but the female hatched out in the end of May. I tried mating them but the male took no interest in the female. The breeder I got them from told me the female has not layed any ooths yet. Are they too young to mate? I will leave them for a few days and then try again I suppose. Th are both in 2 gal buckets will crix superworms and silkies.
