Pulled out a few deep red colored ghost mantises to be auctioned tonight on palmstreet. Looks like 3 girls and 1 boy. Colors are not a guarantee to stay from molt to molt but by this size (L4) it’s usually a good indicator of what they’ll be with this species. Make sure you check us out at 8:00 and get into these auctions!
