Description
Currently available i have a quantity of 2nd and 3rd instar Hymenopus coronatus commonly known as the Orchid Mantis.
Feeding great on large fruit flies.
Temperature 24-28°c but will tolerate up to 30/32°c and a night time drop down to 16/18°c.
Humidity range 60-80%.
As they grow they will feed on green bottle flies, blue bottle flies, wax moths, roaches and locusts (I am a believer against feeding them crickets due to bacteria and sensitivity which can be fatal to this species of mantis).
Collection from NG17 or postage available via RMSD next day before 1pm at a cost of £10. My posting days are Mon-Thurs.
