That's an interesting transition.

Thx. At first I wanted a low-maintenence pet, but then I was disappointed at their one year life span, and wanted a longer lived pet.

Thx Katach . These bugs are really amazing, but its disappointing that not many people know about them

They are very cool! They are lucky to have in your home or yard as well.

I've never kept mantises myself, but I met someone who does:

Probably the only snapping turtle that has the word cuddly associated with him.

If he keeps growing at that rate, you might have to change his name to Gamera. You'd have to teach him to breathe fire and fly, but he's already friend of children everywhere.

I might get one sometime..

Here's Big Legs, my pacific chorus frog. She's such an awesome little frog. She actually sits very calmly on my hand and doesn't try to get away.

She just ate a large 4 week old cricket so she was exceptionally lazy.

Awwwww, that froggy is soooo cute!!
