Poor mantis...

Are there no native species you could catch? Chinese mantids, though rather plain, make great pets and should live in OK if I'm not mistaken.

I have no idea if carrots could be problematic or not.

I did find her a native, but she has to release it next week when school starts. She really likes the mantid's, she handles them for hours and does so well with them!


I really want to get her a texas unicorn mantid!

Nice to see you around here again Cam! I thought you had left us lol
