    Very cool! Are you planning on letting the little 'Larrys' go or are they going to live a pampered lifestyle at casa de trogdor?

    I love mantis'. We had one that lived in hour tree out side our front door. She actually jumped out of it one day and landed on me. Scared the living daylights out of me.

    I fed her crickets too. Never saw any babies though!

    hopefully setting soo many free in such a small area they might stick around and breed here.

    Well I set all of those baby mantids(sp) free last night in my yard by some weeds that have lots of aphids so they will have food. Heres the bad news when I got home the yard had been mowed :( Highly unlikly that anything in there would survive. Poor things I should have left then im my room. :(:(

    Oh no! :tears:

    I'm sure some of the babies would have moved off that patch of weeds to other places, so some should have survived. You may have a nice mantis colony in your yard yet.

    My grandma had a pair way back when. They mated and had babies. She didn't think it was a big deal until they hatched and she had a hundred or so babies crawling around her apartment EVERYWHERE. She just kept finding more and more, and didn't want to kill the babies of her pets, so she lived with a praying mantis infestation for ages. We still laugh at her for it. :rolleyes:
