Hydrogardens Inc (hydro-gardens.com) sells them, but only at certain times of the year. You buy a cocoon or two and hatch them out yourself. I will tell you that when they hatch out they are voracious eaters (and will even eat each other), so have some fruit flies ready to feed them, or release them into a garden and they will thrive, but you'll have to catch the ones that hang out again. I had some tomato plants in my basement that had aphids & the baby mantids feasted on them, then they got eaten by my Chams.

Here in portland you can get them at sevendees garden center. I bet one of those hippie garden centers in your area has some

I believe some people on the forums raise them, check the classifieds.

lol @ hippie garden center...i will say i have my mantids...

My wife thinks its hilarious that I feed crickets good gutload, then feed them to the mantids, and then finally the mantids to the boys. My Ambilobe still is not quite sure of them and has yet to finally nail one but I think we are making head way.
