What a beautiful insect. I'm rearing several myself...
What do you feed them when they're that size, Phil?


Ever tried any silkworms- mine can't seem to get enough!

Half grown crickets.

Or mealies, or whatever else I happen to have on hand but usually crickets.

nice pics Phil...
do you have a Hierodula Trimaculata?

 

[Phillip]

not up on my mantid latin..

Which one is that? I could tell you if I was looking at my mantid book but I haven't memorized the latin on the mantids yet. But to answer you question no all I have right now is the number 9s.

Only have about 10 left though and I'm hanging on to a few of them for breeding.
