Orchid Mantis

Description

The Orchid Mantis. A hobby classic. Limit 3 per person.

$33 each for second instar nymphs.

Hymenopus coronatus, that’s right, Orchid Mantis. It is one of the most requested live pet bugs that people want to buy! There is no other mantis, maybe even insect, that generates the kind of attention this one gets. White bodies, often with pink highlights, lobed legs and a small horn above their pointy pink-striped, white eyes. This species is distinguishable from all other mantises, but then indistinguishable from the orchids and other flowers they may camouflage themselves on.

Do not, do NOT, miss out on these! While you’re thinking, somebody else is clicking! I love to see all the familiar names come out of the woodwork on stuff like this.

L2 nymphs (have shed their skin 1 time), unsexed. No guarantees. We buy and resell these and did not breed them ourselves. Captive bred in the USA. Selling them all. Feeding on fruit flies.

If out of stock, get on the wait list!
