And then there were...

seven little praying mintids left. Yes, only seven-- it's been pretty fascinating watching the strong survive and quickly grow. They should shed their 'skin' in about a week.

What was always thought of a calm, peaceful insect is quite untrue! These little critters are the feistiest, meanest little things around-- I pity any little insects in their way. Sure beats watching goldfish any day! Can't wait to see who survives-

Mean little dudes, huh? I'm very surprised by that as the mature ones I've come across seem really docile...I guess those are the ones you need to watch out for, right?

Great pictures, Jen...

Luv ya
