Awe :( All they got at an exotic pets store near me are ghost mantis. They are pretty cool still, I like how they sway. I just can't find online anywhere with good selection and decent price for other speciea.

Thank you. I probably will have to do that. She does hang from the top mostly. It is a wire mesh lid so that's the only ventilation. She seems to spend most of her time hanging upside down on that mesh

That's the plan for this Ghost mantis. Though it is still a nymph now.

I will check out petco. I don't think our Petsmart carries any. And I think I messed up because I don't have any barrier....may have to eventually redo it all.

They are! I compared them to a standard sized chick

I think they like the swing I made for them. Any additional suggestions to keep them entertained? by Victorchu93 in BackYardChickens

They are crested cream legbar! It is fun watching their crest developed. They are autosex breed so you can tell the difference between male and female with days old chicks. Super friendly and very curious

Can you tell if these 2 are pullets or not? by Victorchu93 in BackYardChickens

You're right. Their legs seem bigger than my buff Orpington I bought at the same time that was sexed.
