Probably one of the most sought after mantises, the Orchid Mantis looks like a walking flower!

This species uses flower mimcry to sit and wait for pollenators to come by flowers and when they do, they launch their stealthy attack! 

Grab these while they last! 

Care:

We recommend 32oz deli cups with the ventilation lids - what most people use for fruit flies - to start them in. 

Add 2" of coconut fiber, a cork bark, stick or something for them to climb on. 

They will need to be misted and fed twice a week with fruit flies or 1/8-1/2" crickets. 

We recommend as fine of a mist that you can provide so they can drink the water droplets off the side of the cage. 

It is an option to feed them with tongs and fresh killed crickets if you just cannot find the perfect size cricket and do not want to deal with flies.
