Hello! First time wanting to buy mantids. I’m based in Ireland and they’re isn’t any petshop here that sells them. A male and a female of a specific mantid breed I’d like to buy. Is it best to buy them in nymph stage,L1,L2,etc.. before they reach adulthood??
Hi Glenn,
Sorry for the late reply, i’m currently in the process of overhauling the website, so i’ve been on lock down for a while.
I currently have sexed pairs of Phyllocrania paradoxa (Ghost Mantis) available at 3rd or 4th instars. It’s probably best to get younger ones to start with, just so you can gain a little experience at handling them, and general husbandry etc…
Mitch.
Are these available for sale at the moment? I am very interested in buying a pair.
Hi,
I can’t see which species you are referring to mate? Thanks.
Mitch.
Sorry, I meant the Malaysian blue. But I’d be happy with almost any.
Hi Paul, so here’s the link to my mantis selling page 🙂 Hope there’s something there that takes your fancy!
