Help, who am i??

[laurie]

this is my mantis, anyone know what kind she/he is? thanks, this is my first mantis pet

 

[melric]

Not sure what kind. But, it does look pretty awesome. I used to have a bunch. I wanna get my hands on an ochid mantis.

My first reaction is that you have a "she"....I have nothing to base that on.

She's adorable. You should name her Manni. Or maybe Judy....she has a diva thing going on.

 

[laurie]

I bought her from Steve Sims, i am hoping he will id her for me.

 

[Elizadolots]

I'm sure he will.

She's obviously much better than the rest of us...you can see it in her face. And there's something about that rear section that just screams "better than you!".

Or maybe it's "If I had a stinger I'd be deploying it now because I'm being handled by some big animal that will probably eat me...".

Hard to tell...I'll cling to my first interpretation. She's better than us.

The care is just the same as other mantids.

You are evil. How could I feed off that sweet little thing? Who would ever have guessed I would like a bug?

creobroter gemmatus

looks like a boy with those long antennas

Laurie, I very stupidly moved his cage a lil too close to my heater and the rest of the story doesn't have a happy ending so I choose to spare you the details

I want to get another one
