Her viv looks great, took me a moment to find her...thought she was a flower bud at first. Your new pair look amazing also...love their pattern. They are so photogenic. I just read up on a care sheet for them and they seem pretty straight forward. Have you tried breeding mantis yet?

Thanks!
The orchid are the first mantids we got. They still need 1 molt and a few weeks before we can breed them.

So when you set them to breed, does the female end up killing the male. I thought that was a mantid trait, but wasn't sure.

You can't keep males and female together (not even females of the same species) they will eat each other. When you attempt breeding them, you have to feed the female during breeding, so she doesn't go for the male.

haha i thought for sure it was going to be eating a male in the pictures! they're totally gorgeous, thanks for sharing! I've thought about keeping them before but heard separating the babies out to prevent cannibalism can be a real chore. I hope you share pics of the little ones when they emerge.  |
