Hey all. I'm new to this particular site, but I remembered that there was a forum here for mantis fanatics, so I thought I'd post this. I was of the impression that they are hard to find unless you get a (usually unwanted) hitchhiker. Stopped by a LFS yesterday that I haven't been to in a while and they have 2 large mantis for sale. One is probably about 5" and the other is at least 6" with their tails curled under. They're selling for $39.99 each. I believe they are of the Odontodactylus Scyllarus variety. They are very beautiful. If I had more knowledge about them and the extra cash for another setup right now I'd spring for one. If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll get you the name of the place and a phone number to find out if they'll ship them if you're not local. These things kinda frighten me, so I'd rather have them ship than attempt it myself.
