    Has anyone heard of RoundVents.com?

    It's amazing how much people are charging for the open screen vents. http://RoundVents.com/ seems a million times cheaper. There's one video on the entire internet that has that site listed in his description. Not spam, I did some research on the site, and it seems legit. If that's true, I'll...

    Which species of Scorpion can go without food for a year?

    That's really fascinating, but wouldn't do it on purpose. I actually own an Adult Female Chinese Mantis. So caring for inverts is something that I'm already doing, not to mention the dubia roaches I'm caring for too, because they're feeders for my mantis. I'm well aware that this is the...

    Praying Mantis Freezing outside

    She's been inside. I just wanted to know if she would of died outside last night seeing how the tempature went down to 42°F last night. Inside her tank, it got down to 64°F. She's still ticking, alive and well today. So basically, what you said, is that 42° probably would of killed her. I've...

    Praying Mantis Freezing outside

    It's 44°F outside right now. If I didn't capture my adult chinese mantis, wouldn't she be dead with temperatures like that? http://i.imgur.com/xbpOU9s.jpg I aware that the mantis is an invertebrate. What is an ideal tempature for a praying mantis, or even cold blooded invertebrates? I tried...

    Does anyone know what this means? (MANTIS)

    Adult Chinese Praying Mantis (Tenodera sinensis). She's got brown on her abdomen. Is that normal, or.. what.. I don't know. I fed her a Stink bug earlier, and then a few hours latter, I gave her a 3/4" Dubia. She didn't seem like she wanted to eat another one.. Usually she eats about 2 -...

    Dubia Roach Food & Water Questions.

    I've seen it, thanks. I also found out that I don't have to include water crystals. The fruit provides the moisture for their diet.

    Mantis Forums (PROBLEM)

    I didn't see that information. So it's a week then.. I'll just shut up then, and wait. I hope it is, because I really wanted to see some mantids, and other enclosure setups. Thank a million.
