Nope, she's not impressed lol got her a brand new one haha

@@themantisgarden Aww I thought you might ☺️

Thanks, mate :)

I would always suggest cryptics or ghosts for the first attempt, Claus. Maybe even desiccata. I think I have a video of pairing cryptics on here so you can see how easy they are.

Yes! I do intend to do that soon.

One of my absolute favourite mantis. Great character and we always have several roaming around the house :)

Can't test the bite without taking it lol Just glad I don't keep crocodiles

Yes, mate

Porcellionides pruinosus - Orange Dalmatian (The ant is a messor barborous and the springtail is just a temperate white lol)

Pain the rectum aren't they? If they didn't sell so well I would never have them in here lol

@@themantisgarden I agree! Would love a video on wide armed mantis, I find consistent information on them difficult to find

@@mybookishpromise Sadly, I don't have those this year. I "might" pick some up though for later in the year. There are numerous mantis with the common name "Wide armed mantis" so if you know the scientific name that would really help?

@@themantisgarden he is a Cilina Humeralis. I’m really enjoying your back log of videos and your breeding activities a great watch!

I paired some mantis tonight and thought about doing a video but couldn't be bothered because my wife got a new phone and won't shut up about it as she's trying to set it up lol

Lol glad I could help haha

Cheers, mate. Thought it was time I made a video lol

No, lol I sell them.

Dubia cockroach

It doesn't appear to matter to be honest. It does depend where in the world you live though for sure.

Thank you, I hope it works for you as it does for me.

Awesome little creatures

Lol I can't remember what it was now but I'm sure I've used it several times since. Thank you. What's your channel so I can have a look at your mantis videos?

@@themantisgarden @mantishunt

Wasn't sure if you were still active; thanks for the quick reply!

@@themantisgarden Just realized original videos are on another channel: @Liam.2-xt7lc. They kind of suck, but it was a start; hopefully you think the new channel has a bit more value...

Yeah, still active but my shop is so busy now that I struggle to find time to make videos. I'll check that out when I get a minute, probably later tonight :)

America?

Sounds like you had graboids lol!!!

They're not now I have to feed them lol

All depends on where in the world you live really. No promises! In a temperate climate they're quite abundant.

Do it!!! You're very lucky. We are one of the few places in the world that doesn't have wild mantis :(

Had to have them, your favourite colour!!! Those are cards between the enclosures so the mantis can't see each other and get stressed :) Ran out of black card so I'm going all rainbow for pride lol

They're like Pokemon and I didn't have this one lol

I gave them to my wife! She still has them and I believe they're doing well. I'll have a look later :)

Ta, keep being asked how to send them lol gets annoying after the 100th time haha

My pleasure!

Sadly, he passed last night Jackie. This is a giant Asian I'm using here.

@@themantisgarden nooo he was doing so good too. I still have the other one... I will check on him again after I pack up some hissers for people

I was old so wasn't expecting him to still be going anyway. He didn't die in an enclosure at least so there is that. Free as a bird on a stick.

Where do you buy your mantises from?

Hope you’re okay not heard from you for a while

We don't have terminates in the UK lol so pretty sure!!!

I sell them, mate.

They're a pain lol Cute though

I'm in England lol They're in good British soil haha You find springtails almost everywhere on Earth

Very apt lol

Thank you! 😊

Just need a big ootheca next 😂

Yes, lol. If panty hose are the same as tights are in the UK 😂

Oh, wow Natalie! I've been bitten lots of times by these. It does really hurt.

Of course, sun was out so only fair.

That a good idea and excuse for a video! I have ghosts here but they're not quite ready for breeding. When they are I will be sure to either make a video or do a live stream. They're really easy to breed and not much to tell about them but I will try my best :)

@@themantisgarden also I meant to say find, not feel

Lmao, I didn't even notice

I have a few 100 of them here lol

I'm behind on everyone's channels! Been so busy or ill 😂

Don't get the chance so often in England but yesterday the weather was good enough :) Thank you

It is a Rhombodera kirbyi from Timor, we have no wild mantis in England :(

I hate them lol
