Dr. Fun - Mantis Report - Preparing Fruit Flies

When the fruit flies arrived in the mail, I had to go through the process of transferring them and starting a new culture. Starting a blog at http://mantisreport.blogspot.com, trying to raise praying mantises.

XD Great Video! Funny and very educational.

Did your new culture work? I've been culturing Hydei for a while and am planning to get some Melanogaster soon... Any tips?

Thanks!

@ThatCrazySpiderGirl - culture did work - you might enjoy seeing the "mantis report" blog, based on the results. I didn't really know what I was doing, but had fun. Actually I ended up trying multiple times and eventually figured it out. the blog is at mantisreport dot blogspot dot kom

You can actually feed mantids chicken, pork and cat food if you ever run out of fruitflys.

im in a class about bugs and you have to freeze the fruit flys then put them into another container. this may you can stun them so they don't move for a couple of seconds. put in freezer for 1:00
