Ghost Mantids
Well, I know some of you have been waiting since I blogged about the small ghost mantids. The subadults came today so your getting you picture fix. It ended up being two pairs. Great since this is one of the few mantids that can live communally if given alot of food. They still haven't settled in yet so they keep trying to climb the glass and falling, but given time they'll stop. If you look in the second picture you can seen the developing wing buds.
