Too much fun!

[stacy]

So I've been here for barely over a month now. When i joined the forums I had none and was really interested in the hobby. Now I have

1 Polyspilota griffinii (griffin),

7 Phyllocrania paradoxa (ghost),

2 creobroter pictipennis,

2 taumantis sigiana,

1 tenodera sinensis

2 majuscula

lmao 15 mantis's and 2 more coming sometime next week

I am so in love with them. I check on them more then 2 times a day, feed,mist, handle them

I suffer from some illness's that I really needed a distraction from and I am so happy I found you and your forum. I cannot wait to find my camera or replace it so I can post some pictures. Last night I decorated every last habitat. They all look happy and well fed.

I just wanted to share my joy of having my new love for these amazing creatures so I thought I'd post

Griffin is one of my favorites as he is extremely friendly and seems to like me too <3 and 1 of the creobroter pictipennis is also a total favorite.He/she loves to kill/hunt/eat by far this little one is the most aggressive with his food, love to feed him

If you know the common names for ones I don't please post them.

Thx
