Face closup

Against a ruler. He is about 4 inches long

I love his wings! But I dont think they are dry yet

My male Violin at L6

Violin Cage (Can you find the female)

How it is setup

 

[sinensispsyched]

She's near the bottom of the screen, on the red leaf.

Check your math again on the majuscula and I think you will find his size is a little bit smaller than 4".

Yay! You are smart! I didnt think it was that obvious.

I am sorry there is no prize. It was just to see if you (not you directly) could find her

Check your math again on the majuscula and I think you will find his size is a little bit smaller than 4".

That was a rude comment. I dont think it was necessary to put it like that. You could have said "He actually looks more like 3 inches" Instead of "Check your math again"

You are right in a sense. But I meant from but to end of antennae It is cut off in the image but it was just about 4 inch. The body is 3 inches

 

[gripen]

Sorry man just trying to be helpful. I was not aware you were including the antenna.

 

[CoolMantid]

Before I forget this. Everybody thank my mom for the amazing pictures!!!!

Good thing she used to be a photographer.

I will ask her to send pictures of my new Ironclad beetle set up

Sorry man just trying to be helpful. I was not aware you were including the antenna.

Not your fault. I am sorry I kinda lashed out at you here and on the Rant post

The violin was NOT NEARLY obvious. It took me five minutes, but then again I was never good at finding things.

My friend who loves my mantids so much came over last week. We made a bet, if he can find my ghost mantis in a moss terrarium with dead leaves in 5 minutes he will win. No money involved. He lost. My ghost is amazing at camoflauge

It would be fun. I think when I have babies that I dont need ( Majority of the 75 Stagmomantis ??? are going to new homes) I will make a contest to se if anyone can find a manis such as a ghost in on a bed of moss

 

[sinensispsyched]

My L2 ghost once ran away, he hid in the shadows so well, eventually we found him in the top of my curtains.

 

[CoolMantid]

I lost a Chinese nymph and found her a while later and she had molted. My room has 50% humidity

 

[sinensispsyched]

Cool!

You have sharp eyes, I still dont see her! LOL

 

[brancsikia339]

Congratz! Btw, I found the violin female in a few seconds! Also, your majuscula looks awesome!

 

[sinensispsyched]

I was looking in the twiggy areas for most of the time.

 

[CoolMantid]

Its most of her butt and leg though. Btw some (Not enough) of my Stagmos molted today. Who ever bought them they will be shipped when I have more L2/3 If you are recieving freebies the same goes to you.
