Aww kat he or she is gorgeous congratulations on your new addition i have giant asian mantis ghost mantis and twig mantis the ghost mantis are long lived mantis mantis are so much fun to keep their have great little charecters
mantisses? manti? mantae? w/e theyre p cool anyway. i like how they seem really aware of whats going on around them. most insects dont really react to things until its really close but manti are always looking around and watching stuff
Was watching and was gonna ask lifespan but you answered it in the first minute. :-) most of my Ts are pre molt in their burrows so I have like only two Ts I can film atm. My Avicularia avicularia and my Aphonopelma chalcodes. My Cobalt Blue, A seemanni, and B hamorii all have the do not disturb sign up. I want to do a full show and tell when I film them. So I’ll wait until they all out and about Very neat mantis though. Can’t wait to see it grown up
So tiny and cute. 2 years ago leaving a reptile expo buying some T's, we saw one of these by the parking lot. A woman picked it up and we were thinking maybe it escaped from a vendor. It was about 5 inches big. I had never seen one of these before. We left it by some trees. Looked just like it's name. Dead leaf! Short life span compared to T's. Keep us updated as she grows.
Awesome addition! I've been seeing a lot of mantis lately, thought about keeping one but decided against it for the same reason you did. I can't wait to see the little one grow up.
Try pin head crickets and be careful due to some mantis can be like goldfish and eat themselves to death with gut rot So I've heard Better safe than sorry so I thought I would mention it

Mantids
It’s just beautiful. I love mantis.
Gonna be great to follow the growth of this little one. Thanks.
How intricate and complex and beautiful are Gods creations!
Dead leaf are beautiful, once they are adults the wing display is beautiful

Very neat mantis though. Can’t wait to see it grown up
I definitely want one of these mandates in the future, I currently want a orchid or ghost and I’m just wait for the enclosure to come.😁

so cool TK! be good to see it grow over the years wow 5 inches!!!!!
I like how you snuck in that Hilda clip in the beginning. Make sure it can get to the top to it can hang upside down and molt.
My daughter loves that show so I had to take that clip to use for videos xD It's just too perfect
How odd
I was thinking about these for a week
I love the bright red ones with midnight blue butts and arms
Super cool
Awesome addition! I've been seeing a lot of mantis lately, thought about keeping one but decided against it for the same reason you did. I can't wait to see the little one grow up.
are you planning on getting more mantids in the future? youtube needs more mantis videos
So cool!!! I love when T channels get new, interesting pets other than T's! Not to mention this thing is so cool!
Great video Kat. I've been very curious about different mantis species for a some time now. Thanks for sharing.

Leaf it out.. That's dead cute!

I Iove Praying Mantis.
Hey great vid Kat cute mantids and dog 🐶😆👍

It’s the right time of the year mine have already grown up
I love your channel. it's a good channel for a beginning creepy crawly lover like me
Two years?!?! All of my native ones die by 8 months! I definitely have to get some of these!
I didn't know you're finger tattoo was a spider, most girls have a flower 😂 awesome 🕸
They are so neat looking. Great Video.
MOOOOO
Try pin head crickets and be careful due to some mantis can be like goldfish and eat themselves to death with gut rot
So I've heard
Better safe than sorry so I thought I would mention it
I had a ortis mantis i don't know what they are called in english but they are very beatifull and i wish you luck with your new mantis
That's a cool addiction you've got!
Hey! I’m a new sub and I love Mantee’s!!!
You are awesome
Can't wait to show this to my son he will loose his mind 🖤🖤
Lol yup and he lost his mind 😂😍
I have two species of dead leaf mantis, an L3 deroplatys lobata and a mature male deroplatys truncata
They don't get 5 inches. I have 3 adults (i got babies from them) and they are only 3.5-4 inches. A lot of peoples exaggerating the size of mantis.
Nice video. I'd put a stick in there, too, for climbing.
rkhnd51 I’m gonna :) and more netting I was also told on the sides. Appreciate the advice
It is so tiny☺️❤️🙈
Mantis can bite you.
Some advice for you...
It's going to stay at the top of the enclosure for.... well a while...
nice😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
:D
