Very true

I found a baby male albino mantis crawling on my shoulder one day when I watching KZread. Had no idea where he came from but I figured, “hey I know how to care for you! Might as well keep you!” And so I did. I ended up naming him Meroda. Once he got bigger I decided to take him with me to my school and educated a few people on mantises. He was always so calm and chill but didn’t like it when anyone but me held him. He definitely knew I was his caregiver. I swear mantis are the most intelligent insect out there! Such curious and smart little guys hehe. Anyways! During his very last shed something went wrong... I have no idea what did it, but his wings ended up becoming deformed after shedding. They never fixed themselves. But luckily it didn’t affect his lifestyle and actually ended up making it safer! Because like I said, I do take him out and show him to people, and if his wings were fully developed than that meant he would be able to fly off and end up hurting himself. So I guess things ended up working out in the end. And since his shed he ended up becoming to big for his enclosure. I didn’t have anywhere else to put him, but then I had an idea! Since he can’t fly he’ll be perfectly safe on my bamboo! Right inside my tank too! So not only will he be outside his cage with nice fresh air and something to hold onto, the evaporating water makes it plenty moist and humid. :) Sadly Meroda is now gone... He recently died a few months ago. But I grantee you he lived a very happy and healthy life! He even became famous throughout my school and was loved by everyone! Educating others about mantises! It was fun while it lasted. And I won’t ever forget him. 💚 You can find images of him on my Instagram @CornBeanSoup! I even have a video of him here, after his last shed. :)

Yi Xin Wang He because he could fly until the improper molt, and they used male terms a lot more.

When I was a kid, my brother caught a praying mantis and we kept her and she had babies. We moved them to a large fish tank when they hatched, used a LOT of fruit flies, and allowed them to cannibalize as they pleased. There must have been 100+ babies, and we couldn't keep them all. We followed the advice of misting the enclosure every day, but we always made sure Greeny (the surviror) had at least one bug to hunt in her enclosure every day. Sometimes she would go a few days without eating, so I think that she was not overweight. It was really fun.

The last time I saw her it was when I got back from work, she was a bit further from her usual spot and I noticed that she had lost a bit of waist size. I went to check her bottom, just to notice some dried foam. She had layed her eggs! And while I was I looking around trying to find the nest, she had left (the odd part is that she chose to run away just after I got home at the end of the day). I love how these little things can lock on to you and follow you with their eyes ^^. Really curious, cute and beautiful creatures.

Again: I appreciate that you're so informative and educational in your videos. It seems to me like there's a lot of folks out there who choose sensationalism over education when it pertains to reptiles, amphibians and arthropods.

I had a lovely green one a few years back. He used to like eating honey from time to time. I would dip the tip of a chopstick in to honey and hold it out for him and he went crazy for it. I also kept him in a large enclosure with lettuce planted at the bottom, branches all over the place and loads of crickets running around. He lived a surprisingly long time and moulted well but if I get another one I will follow your guidance as I was probably just lucky with him and I wouldn't want one to be eaten mid moult.

„Before we catch that fly, let us praise the Lord!“ - Praying Mantis

My dad and I have kept a mantis every year since I was about seven. They're super cool pets! There's a ton of them where we live and so we've always just caught a baby outside and raised it. We always let it go around this time of year (when fall starts getting cooler) so they can breed just to be completely sure that we aren't impacting the population. The first two we had were Chinese, the other ones were Carolina.

I made an amazing discovery! Look at a mantis swaying, put dance music over it. Your welcome.

For some people, Mantises are fun to keep as pets for a while, but not to raise! So for those of you who find a mantis and want to have it as a pet, but don't have the proper tools to keep it from dying, I highly recommend keeping it for a day or two and then releasing it into the wild where it belongs! That's the only way to ensure that it'll take be able to care of itself better than you ever could!

I was surprised by the exclosure size recommendations. I used to have hundreds of plants in my room and I simply let my girl hang out on them. She'd always stay on the plants in my room - would go from one side of my room to the other sometimes, but would always climb onto me when I misted my plants in the morning. I kept crickets in an old butterfly net-cage thing and would use my snake's feeding tongs to feed her one of those. She never had a name, but I'd always call her pet names: Hey, pretty girl. Look at you, sweetheart, eating so well. Oh, there's my little lady... good morning. She was a little darling. Mantises make great pets.

Hey guys! Let me start off by saying I love your channel a lot. I really do! But I wanted to touch on some things that I found misleading in your video regarding mantis care. I've been in the mantis trade for quite a while now and one thing I've found about most mantis care videos is that they treat all mantis care as identical. That simply isn't the case. For instance, your ghost there actually prefers moderate to low humidity (as he's from a very dry climate) and the amount of misting you did in his little cup was way too much. Some mantis species even need as little as 10% or less humidity to be successful. It's very species dependent and there's no catch all among common hobby mantises. Additionally, a number of mantis species require additional heat (Desert mantises need spotlights of up to 110 degrees!) Also telling the difference between males and females can vary depending on the species as well. While the segment method is pretty universal, it can be incredibly difficult to determine the difference on some species. On Orchids, for instance, their collar around their neck is brown in males and green in females. Male ghosts have long, thin, crooked head crests while females are shorter and more blunted. Paper towel may not be enough for certain species (something like a violin or devil's flower mantis definitely needs a mesh). Also regarding feeding, it's generally advised not to feed crickets, as they commonly have lots of bacteria in their guts and mantises can be sensitive to these. But you can also feed wax worms (not too often, too fatty) and the moths that pupate into, as well as soldier flies or their larva, grasshoppers, butterflies. Another thing you didn't touch on that I think is very important with these guys is that you should never, unless you are 100% sure you have a native or naturalized species, release your mantis outside. It can be very dangerous for the ecosystem. Anyway, as always, I look forward to seeing more videos from you. Please include these little guys in the future!

Wow! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. We just got some Praying Mantises from our neighbour and your video was very interesting to watch. You did a great job 👏🏼

Very informative! I have been wanting a mantis for a long time. Thank you!

How do they react to snoot boops?

My Pillow where do you live? I wonder where they are native to

Thank you so much for this video! I’ve researched a whole ton and this helped me a lot. I’m looking forward to getting a mantis next month!

Ah, I just saw this video last night and reviewed today. It was really helpful since in science class we were hatching them and they hatched today! I’m really excited because I get to keep some but nervous because they are a nymph. Thanks for sharing this video even if it was a couple years ago😌💖

Snake Discovery Thank you! I’m curious whether it was Emily or Ed who decided to sneak him into videos - or was it a mutual decision? Love your channel btw. I’ve learned so much and I hope you reach a million subscribers very soon. You guys deserve it!!

omg! was scrolling thru the comments and after 10 comments I couldn't belive noone was talking about pickle rick! I saw it at 6:50 and went back to see if it had always been there

How'd you know I was considering a praying mantis!

I laughed so hard at the little text bits you put in for the mantises, it's so funny and cute! I love these critters, I hand fed some wild ones I found in our tiny garden and they ended up laying eggs, and now we have loads of them helping us with pest control and generally being cute and entertaining. :)

A few months ago I actually got a Spiney Flower Mantis and oml I am in love with her, she is very clingy and very loving and very easy to take care of.

Also she prefers to eat pre killed insects, the only insects she can eat alive is flies and moths.
