Standing in the bug room when I felt something crawling on my leg. Look down expecting a fly but instead I see a tiny mantis nymph. First instinct was to look around and make sure I didn't leave an ooth out. :lol: That wasn't the case so I figured it hitched a ride from outside.

There were a bunch of a chinese nymphs in the yard but this guy is clearly not a chinese. I stuck him in a cup to find out what he is. Most likely carolina.

 
It is always funny when they find us!

Rick! You've stumbled upon the very rare Takeru-Kobayashi mantis! What a find! They're known to try and catch things way outside they're ability to eat....this one must have been trying to chew on your leg....

Yeah, that was my thought, too. Just feed him about a hundred hot dogs a day, and he should be fine.
