Hey guys!!

I'm kinda a newy to the forum. Just thought I'd start off with a simple post lol.
So anyway who has a mantis? I've got about 250 (I breed and sell them off) bout 100 African Mantids and 150 Giant Asian mantids.
Does anyone else here sell mantids, or have any experiance with them??

Thanks,

-John-

I have kept a few, recently I have had a couple die so I have given up with them

well one of my malaysian orchid mantis died, the other day, and I have had a couple of chinese mantis die, I had a malaysian orchid mantis that lived over a year and an african that lived about 14 months, I also have a sub ault indian violin mantis at the moment.

oooh the classic violin mantis!! You can house them in groups you know, they're not canabalistic.
Orchids are generally a weak mantis, they easily get problems when it comes to shedding.
Lol I'm not a big fan of chinese mantids, I think they look weird.

Very nice collection!!

mantis are ace. I've currentl got an adult marbled mantis and as of last night a recently shed L3 ghost mantis.

Marbled are really cool! Nice size and a perfect eating machine!
