I have 5 praying mantis nymphs, none of them have shed their exo for the first time yet. I've fed them 1 wingless fruit fly per day and it's very interesting watching them 'jump out' and grab the fly. I don't remember exactly when they hatched, but they're about a week old. I can't wait to see them grow!

I bought the egg cases online from amazon - http://www.amazon.co...t/dp/B004LTFMAY

I put a link the the original post where you case buy the egg cases. (It was in my recommended list from Amazon btw haha)

 

I only kept two of them and only one of them have molted so far. I have been feeding them 1-2 wingless fruit flies every 1-2 days.
