Taiwan Flower Mantis have hatched!

[MikhailsDinos]

I received a Taiwan Flower Mantis (Acromantis Formosana) ootheca from Yen, The other day. Now it has hatched after 3 or 4 weeks. I've counted 50 or so nymphs. This species is so much fun, Because they chase their food down & are very aggressive.

Adult female.

Congratulations! This is another species I am dying to keep.

Keep us updated with how you get on with the nymphs.

Oh great! always glad to see the ootheca hatching out fine. You are sure a busy dad now Mikhails

They need extra misting especially if you see them drinking often. Have fun with these little eating machines

Will do!

So far all the nymphs are eating & are doing very well. I'll keep this post updated with new info/pictures of their progress.

First, I want to thank you again Yen!

I've noticed they love water, They drink all the time. I mist them about 3 to 4 times a day, Or when I have the time.

I'll keep this species going for you Yen. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to work with this species!
