Probably a dumb question, is this little fella a praying mantis? I'm in Italy if matters

Am i just bad at counting or does he have more than 8 abdominal segments? (rhombodera stalli, L3-4 i think)

Do praying mantises eat ants I’ve tried looking it up on Google and Wikipedia and it is not really telling me much

He didn't respond after this. Don't think it was the brand of sexy talk he was after 😆

Today when I went to spray her enclosure, I lightly nudged her out of the way of the door with my finger. Then she pinched me and started making hissing sounds. She’s never done that before... :(

I’m new to praying mantids and wanted to know if this looks like a good enclosure for one (details in the comments)

One of my mantids eyes are dilated and the other isn’t... is there something wrong about that?

3yr ⋅

I’d like some Giant Rainforest advice! He was super full when I got him, to the point of stretching his segments! I allowed him some time to digest, but it’s been a few days and he still looks quite full. Is this normal for this species or should I let him slim down more before I feed next?

My Chinese mantis laid a 'half ooth?' and this is what the bottom looks like, you can see where they would be if there were any in there but one is clearly darker than the rest, wanting to know if that means one might actually be in there? or does anyone know why it looks different than the others?

Finally I found one of my babies! I hatched 6 egg sacs this summer and this is the first full grown mantis I’ve seen. She’s hunting on my car in the driveway under the garage light.

My orchid mantis is laying flat and flies are just crawling on it while it knocks them away. Usually it stays still and hangs upside down. Is it dying?
