    One of the Asian flower mantids just shed. It's still tiny and there's barely a difference but its definitely a tiny bit bigger.

    Now 12 have shed! They are growing fast and I've only had them a few days. Here's a video of one of the flower mantids eating a fruit fly. Tell me what you guys think of the little guy.

    Mantids are really awesome to watch grow as the food items get bigger and more diverse

    I'll be feeding them as diverse a diet as possible. Roaches, crickets, locusts, mealworms, pachnoda grubs, waxworms etc
