Praying Mantis

I had a few back when I was younger. A wicked huge female ate.everyone else and then laod eggs and died. I put the eggs outside so I don't know what ever happened with them. She was scary when she molted and gained her wings.....she took quite a few stabs at me too! :p

I dunno but I feel like mantids for lack of a better word trust my touch. I have never been "attacked" or whatever you want to call it. I have a chinese mantis right now actually, found him the other night. :)


I doubt ill be getting more than one, even if it means I will only enjoy it for a year. Im not confident enough to breed and raise them from babies.

Ps Kevin that's why you can't keep most species together... they not only cannibalize but after mating the female eats the male. :D
