oh iv been raising a chamloen(yemen) from a baby..hes almost adult now..il show u a pic of him later
they sure are..no edited colour.very pretty,and very rare.every one wants em and no one can get em.for some reason graham dont sale em much so theres a big demand for em.as far as im aware im the only guy trying to breed them on the forums.i say try because last time i was unsuccessful..i only had 1 ooth laid then the female died and the ooth didnt hatch.those where the days when i feed crickets..over a year now i only feed my mantids bluebottle flies and fruit flies.So im hoping i have more success.female has laid an ooth about 3 weeks ago so fingers crossed.
