Brunners mantis vs. indian stick

[ColorCham427]

any difference??? these "brunners" produce without males... i dont think there are males actually...hmm...?

They look a lot alike, but they are very different. Idian Sticks eat leaves. Mantis eat bugs.

Reviving an old thread, how are brunners as far as feeders?

Just like any other mantis as a feeder.
Have to keep apart if keeping more than one. They will eat each other. Have a nice green color to them.

Nothing special then?

No, and alot slower to raise up than sticks. Not so much meat on them.

Sticks take forever too

Yes, but you can raise up hundreds together, in a medium sized cage. Or so I've been told
