Praying Mantis Egg Case (Ootheca)
We offer the Chinese praying mantis egg case, which will hatch oodles of newborn praying mantis nymphs. You can either keep them in an enclosure as a pet or
let them free in your garden for pest control. When the egg case receives 2-6 weeks of warm temperature, it will hatch to your amazement.

Living Praying Mantis Juvenile
Praying mantis juveniles are 1-2 months old and around 1 inch long or more. We offer both the Chinese
(Tenodera sinensis) and Carolina (Stagmomantis carolina) praying mantis juveniles.
We will send you 2 for each 1 you order in case one dies during shipment (except for the kits with live mantids, which come with two total).
Both will most likely be fine when you receive them. Please have
food on hand when your new pets arrive. We recommend the d. Hydei wingless fruit flies along with
other supplements such as silkworms (see menu to right).
Chinese praying mantises are about 3-5 inches long when fully grown. Carolinas are almost identical to the Chinese mantis, but
they are smaller and will reach about 2 - 2.5 inches long as an adult. Both species range in color from green to brown.
Both types are found throughout the United States and are commonly used for garden pest control. They also make an
awesome pet or fascinating science project.

Praying Mantis Food
Fruit Flies:
The best food for praying mantis nymphs is the d. Melanogaster WINGLESS FRUIT FLIES and the d. Hydei FLIGHTLESS FRUIT FLIES.
(Click here to purchase Fruit Flies)
Silkworms:
As your praying mantids grow they will require larger food, such as our small to medium sized SILKWORMS. Silkworms are highly
nutritious and will help your praying mantises grow big and strong in a shorter amount of time than with less beneficial feeders.

Rice Flour Beetles:
A good item to have on hand in case you find yourself in a food emergency. The rice flour beetle culture
can sit around indefinitely without any fuss or worry and the beetles will continue to produce juicy larvae.
