I am very excited to try this experiment!
I picked up a praying mantis egg case today at the Philadelphia Flower Show!
I am going to see if I can get them to hatch, and then I will raise them! This is the first time I am trying this so hopfully it works!
I hung the case from a makeshift branch made from chopsticks and twist-ties.
The enclosure is a deli-cup.
It should take about 4-6 weeks for them to hatch, and I will post an update as things (hopefully) happen!
I will move them once they hatch and get bigger into a larger enclosure.
Stay tuned for more updates!
