Traded Mantis

I traded with Jerri of BioQuip a few of my local mantis species for this guy with an ooth. Currently incubating the ooth under a controlled ceramic bulb and expecting a good few babies in a couple weeks.


Had some fun with lighting last night.

I am not sure as i did not take note of it when I traded. I believe it is an Asian Flower mantis but not sure. Fransisco might know.
What

Im pretty sure it is an Odontomantis sp.

HEllo All,

Hey Alex, let me know once you get babies.

I love the Jeweled Flower Mantis or Indian Flower Mantis (Creobroter gemmatus) Is a species of praying mantis native to Asia.

Have fun with her.

Here they are:






The final count is 56. Their size is much smaller than the Limbatas so I have no clue how to feed them.

I will take any suggestions on how to feed. Going to try melanogaster now.

Hello,
Alex, they should take melanogaster without a problem.

good job

save me some.

I am currently trying to mate her with a male I got from Jerri. Hopefully I will get another ooth when they finally mate.
