Got a nice group of this species for use as feeders, but dang are they pretty! 😍 Nymphs have variable coloration that changes from instar to instar, and adults are quite pretty too!

Some mantids I'm planning on getting next year. :)

These guys are absolutely booming for me, such a pretty species, hope to see more people culturing them in the future! :)

I've already gushed about these in a couple of places, but I've got some more in me. Man, what an excellent-looking roach! Their bright colours and bold patterns are irresistable. Well done for boosting these in blatticulture and letting us know.

Thanks, they are shaping up to be some of my favorite Ectobiids for sure, really wish I hadn't botched the breeding of my H.vittata so badly... These palliata are far more forgiving, definitely a species I hope to see more people breed in the future! :)

@Hisserdude

Those are adorable, where did you get them?

My buddy @Bmaines96 sent me some, along with some other goodies last November. :D
