Unusual pet - Jewelled flower (creobroter gemmatus) mantis
Creobroter gemmatus (Jewelled Flower mantis) nymphs - L still available Mantids make surprisingly fun and cute little pets! Very easy to look after, but more interesting than your average stick insects/beetles. They’ll chase down prey, shower themselves off in water, are happy to be held and will even drink honey from your hand! Great as first pets for younger children too, with a little assistance. A good care sheet is available on 'keepinginsects' website under 'Indian Flower mantis'. They need feeding around twice per week and misting every couple of days with water. A care sheet is included with every package and do feel free to ask me any questions. This is a small species that grows to around 4cm as adults. They have a total lifespan of ~1 year. A very easy species suitable for beginners. COSTS AND POSTAGE L4/5 nymphs are £6.50 each. Willing to do discounts for multiple - please just ask. Can be safely posted anywhere in UK for £8 with Royal Mail next day delivery. Collection may be arranged from Chichester or Salisbury area. Thanks!:) (PS.
