So… can you provide enough food for them, before it’s warm enough to release them into the wild? Just wondering, brother…

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen such a tiny mantis.

Great image.

Congrats on the babies! My daughter was home schooled and one year we decided to hatch a mantis egg sack and release 60+ viable mantids into nature. Needless to say, after our four-day waiting period, we had 12 mantis babies left! I did not realize that they would eat each other so voraciously! I wish you better with your mantis family!
