USMANTIS

Despite a difficult time of year to order, the breeder and I managed to communicate and solve any issues that arose. Remember shipping winter time is toughnDon't recommend it! The fly cultures I got have needed almost daily culling into the fish tank ud83dude02 remember to feed them fruits. The breeder has love and passion for these love bugs! I'm so happy and love the mantids I ordered.

I don't know where all these negative reviews come from. I placed my order and it promptly shipped the following Monday. I will update my rating when the mantis hatch (or don't) but the communication from the seller was great and everything arrived on time as scheduled.

I received my four ghosts mantis, they are awesome. However I had to take of work to pay extra postage and pick them up before they got sent back. He did refund me shipping which I Appreciate. However the perfect mantis box wasn't as pictured and mantis and fruit flies can easily escape so I have it in another enclosure. He didn't respond to second message, I'd order from him again maybe but have another mantis plug locally. Also box came super damaged no fragile or any care as to what was inside per USPS.

At first it took a while for the mantis to be shipped out just because their were so many things going on but when he did ship they came a day earlier than expected. They arrived in very good condition and began to eat right way. Overall pretty good if you are willing to wait a little longer.

I ordered 3 mantises and fruit flies. I never got an email saying when they would be shipped or when they would arrive, so I was not home when they arrived and weather was cold. Also, the fruit fly larvae were coming OUT of the holes in the lid so I had to relocate them. Disgusting. The mantises were fine but one was an L4 when I ordered an L2/L3. The packaging sucked and the tiny mantids could have easily been hurt or killed.
