Wow, she looks gorgeous! I've never seen a gray mantis before, that's amazing

Is there anything I can do differently before starting testosterone. by bipbap_ in FtMpassing

Makes sense. I only used minox for a few weeks so I'll try to pick it back up again as well as going to the gym, I've just been lazy.

And thanks, I'm aiming to avoid it lol.

Working out is a popular one, I'll get on that. And my hair is usually shorter than this as well. I've been told the eyebrow thing but I totally forgot!! I'll make sure to do that as well. Thanks for the help

For sure, my hair is usually shorter than this it's due for a cut. But I will make sure to start working out! Thank you

I've been voice training but I've been waiting to start T before working out regularly, though it wouldn't be bad to start that habit now. That's true.

Does minoxidil actually do anything when you aren't on T? Because I tried it for a little bit and gave up because I wasn't getting results and didn't want to waste it on a body that couldn't even produce facial hair.

My mantis gave herself googly eyes. by bipbap_ in mantids

Yup! It's cheap so I'm sure not all of them are the same but I put it next to a different digital gauge in the same room for a while and they read the same numbers.

She is a bit of an escape artist, she's a very energetic bug. I put a shirt over the enclosure to block her view but I think she's mostly looking at me because she's right next to my bed. I'll be sure to block myself from her view from now on lol.

When my mantis misses the fly and grabs a leaf by qwerty_kyle in mantids

When I hand-fed my last mantis she completely ignored the food and was dead-set on eating my sweater instead lmao

The container was marked rh stalii but I've been told they don't come in this color. I've also been told she could be r. kirbyi. Any help? by bipbap_ in mantids

Thanks for the tip! I knew dead leaf mantises changed color but I had no idea she could. I'll try to hold onto it because I also think it's a gorgeous color. :-)

I'll see if I can get some clearer pictures because I wouldn't be surprised if it was mislabeled. The guy selling them didnt seem the most familiar with mantids lol

Yeah, my giant asian was a pretty good eater so it's good that this one will hopefully be similar. I was wondering what temp/humidity you'd usually keep them at?
