Mantis as Pet

Hey guys,

Just wondering if there are some mantises that have a decent life span and are not tough to take care of. I see Peter has some on his site, would just like some general info on these guys. Thanks!

 
it depends on the species, some, like creobroter, are short lived but fun and easy to care for. all mantises eat a lot and are pretty fun but the care level is different. if you want a long lived easy mantis, go for miomantis species, adult females live for almost a year and they are very easy to breed despite their small size

 
I've actually been perusing the mantidforum sister site, and have found quite a bit of information. I plan on starting with the budwing and take it from there. Have an L3 nymph coming

. The Creobroters are small right? The ghosts look cool, and I thoughthe shields looked cool too. Maybe I'll try them if the budwing isn't too much.

Well, I actually ordered a h. Parviceps adult. I swear this is my last one though!!!

And I think my bud wing is about to molt to L4.
