Tang Salad Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Very healthy, active and colorful. $50 or trade for nice SPS. Local Pickup Only, please. Pics taken without and with flash: I'd say he's a little over 6 inches long, but haven't put the ruler close enough to measure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaceyJ Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hehehehe, I tried this. If no one will take it, we can see if ours will mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tang Salad Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 (edited) Wow, and your offer was way better than mine. Must be bad timing. I'd love for ours to get together and hang out and mate and stuff, but I'll probably end up using mine in an elaborate practical joke I have planned.

KaceyJ Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 (edited) as long as it is not cruel to the mantis he can hurt any human he wants, but do not hurt the mantis lol. I am going to keep mine. If you want to get rid of yours, and no one will take him, I can trade you some frags. Edited April 8, 2009 by KaceyJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Dena Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Do mantis get alone with each other? Dena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaceyJ Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Do mantis get alone with each other? Dena Not to my knowledge. I would house the separately if i ended up with 2. If one is male and one is female, I would expect them to do fine. But I would treat them like I do my tarantulas. House them separate, and then introduce them. if they fight separate again, if they court, wait till they are done, then separate lol. I would never let them LIVE together.

Tang Salad Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 Do mantis get along with each other? Sorry, no they do not. From everything I've read they are nearly impossible to pair up, and it shouldn't be attempted. (I thought Kacey was only joking about that, so I was just joking back.)

Tang Salad Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 Cool, thanks Kacey. If you wanted to trade it for some blastos, that'd be great! I could meet in either North or South Austin...Central would work as well. But the sooner, the better as I have other plans for this tank.
