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

[Truffs1178]

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

Really but the Egyptian mantids only get bout 3.5 inches surely a pachnodas too big
