Alright so we all naturally have our favorite species but there's some species we just up and decide to have ten (or 100) of because why the heck not? Personally when it comes to my collection, I like to stick to diversity since I have such a small collection. No more than two per species. However, if I do decide to go nuts with the hobby, I won't be surprised if I have several hundred Carolina babies simply because they were my first mantis species.
Fast forward a few years and I'll be drowning in dragon mantises. That or weird, obscure species no one ever seems to have.
