Are they having a prayer meeting? :)

Hey Judith, I had not realized that you already had photos! Great!

Must be quite a learning experience watching them develop.

Where have all the aphids gone? Later in the season I have tons...fruit flies? I'd rather have the flightless ones they sell in a kit...but I just checked on the price and with shipping it came to something onver $19! Guess I'll have to go check out my neighbor's gardens! I'm going to call PetSmart and see if they have the pinhead cricket nymphs they mention.

That's terrific, Judith. From the way you spoke I thought I wouldn't be able to tell they were mantises...didn't expect them to look so well formed! They are amazing! Watch out they don't eat each other! I think I'd better put a thicker stick in there for them.
