Two questions

[MANTIS DUDE]

Two question: Have 2 different mantid species ever been breed together? Are mantids nocternal? -_-

 

[Birdfly]

I believe a few similar species have been cross bred (perhaps some one can better inform us) but it is frouned apon, whether the offspring were sterile mules i dont know.

As to nocturnal, they do hunt at night in my experience and a friend of mine has had them feeding in 100% darkness, whether this was by sight or touch remains a mystery, they will make good use of street lamps, moon light and uv insect traps though

Pseudocreobotra Ocellata and Wahlbergii have been succesfully mated but the offspring were weak and sterile.

May be time to give that search feature a try huh? We had a long thread awhile back on this.

It seems Mantis Dude has been putting many threads which have been covered b4. So i agree we should resort to search first.

use the search future..

Not trying to discriminate but after strike thirty-eight can't we just limit MANTIS DUDE to creating replies and not creating new topics?

Why is everyone so stressed about new topics?!

Its a forum ment for posting things, so does this mean that a queshton is only ment to be asked once?!

If so then let it get 1 answer then lock it up and leave it, then when all queshtons are ask, lock the whole friggin forum

lol true, but its just that theres usually a million thread on a topic.

True, if its all on the same page i agree, but if a queshton does not get asked again, it would go all the way back to the last pages

But to the people that moan, answer...or dont, someone it asking you a queshton you can answer them or make a waste of a post by moaning about answering :angry:

Why is a great deal made every time?

It is merely a post at the end of the day

Did you lean on the enter button XD

Good call Morpheus!! I agree whole heartedly! If you don't want to answer a repeated question, then don't. And the search feature, while useful, isn't the answer. It only works well if everyone spells key words like names correctly.

 

[Birdfly]

Me too, i like talking mantis, even if i have said it before to some one else! especially if a forum is quiet. Its all about learning after all

 

[The_Asa]

Having an abundance of overused topics could be harmful, I don't really like having to scroll through thoroughly discussed topics over and over again. However, on the other hand, the search feature is very nearly useless as it only tracks keywords within the posts, which could lead to anything. And really, its only one user who appears to be making so many topics anyway. Even then, more time is devoted to discussing other things in MANTIS DUDE's posts than the actual topic itself

I do use the search feature but I never find anything! :huh: I typed in "breeding different species" and there was nothing remotely related to my question. <_<

then search in general mantid discussions only, you wont get the trash then
