Description

The spiny flower mantis Pseudocreobotra wahlbergi is a species everybody must experience. They used to appear in the pet stores from time to time and have been circulating around the US hobby for 25+ years. They are larger than the Creobroter species we sometimes see, and with nearly twice the body mass. Better yet, they have more striping and little flanges all over their bodies. They were originally referred to as #9 mantises for the symbol-like pattern on their backs (not #6’s for some reason).

Currently available at ~L3/L4 or so nymphs (have shed their about three times). $17 each, unsexed. Feeding on fruit flies (related products below) or house flies.

    Came in PERFECT condition, they was on the little grabby spot on the ceiling of the delicup. Heatpack kept them perfectly warm. Precious little baby ate right after I got the cage set up.

    I never seen a more stunning little mantis. She/he also ate right away once she arrived! Perfect!

    My little guy came in healthy, and active. The same can be said for the flightless fruit flies. Service was great.

    I ordered two little ones and they arrived in great health! Even after FedEx didn’t notify me they had delivered at the pickup. I had a feeling they were there so I went to check and sure enough they were there but the tracking had not been updated. I opened the box in my car immediately and they were very alert. When I got home they were eager for the pinhead crickets I offered them and ate right away.

    Just received my adorable little nymph and some fruit flies, she was packaged really well and very secure! Got her settled into her enclosure and offered a fruit fly which she took right away and chowed down on! Way too cute. Great communication from Peter, I will be buying more funky little friends from him in the future.

    Little guy came in just before noon. He was so small it was adorable. I got his home set up & misted it. I fed him a hydei fly 10 minutes later. 10/10 would recommend.
