Chicken, it's what's for dinner

Joshua's pet praying mantis, Bobo, has a pretty good life. We gather bugs for her daily consumption, but the cold front last week put an end to our endless supply of grasshoppers and moths. I read in a children's book that a family got their pet praying mantis to eat chicken, so we tried it.



So, next spring we should have 100-200 baby mantids, if you want a good pet.
