About this page
This is a website dedicated to praying mantids and other inverts. Here you will see my mantids, my experience with them, and all other things I have done with them. I will try and post as much as I possibly can!
About Me
I have always been interested in Reptiles and Insects, however years ago I found that there was hardly any way to get hold of them, so instead I stuck to reptile keeping. So far I keep a Bearded Dragon (Pogona Vitticeps). But now since June, I went to a reptile breeders meeting. There I met a guy called Graham, who makes a living off breeding and selling insects. I always found stick insects although interesting not quite as amazing as the Praying mantis. After a couple of weeks, I decided to buy a Sphodromantis Lineola, commonly known as the African Lined mantis. Sphodromantis means Africa, or referring to the continent of Africa. Lineola means little line. Since then I have had, a Pseudempusa Pinnapavonnis ( Peacock Mantis) and a sexed pair of phyllocranio Paradoxa (Ghost Mantis) and a creobroter pictipennis ootheca. Now my collection has further been expanded to a Turkistan Roach colony and a Chile Rose Tarantula.
