Why don't people like to feed crickets to their mantis?
ATM I'm feeding mine on various sized crickets that have been fed fruit - grapes, apple, cucumber, honey etc. I also catch whatever flying insects I can find but these are in REALLY short supply atm (good, rainy, cold Welsh weather ).
I've read about curly wing flies but these look to be a right pain to rear/catch. Are they worth all the hastle.
Does anyone have any other suggestions for food items. (something frozen would be nice - if only )
Cheers
