The spotted is going soon to a friend, I bought him for my GF but she's lost interest so I'm giving him to a friend on principle. Lol..
The garter is my little worm, she hates me and is pure evil but that just makes me love her more! Hahaha

Thanks, the geckos got me hooked with their red eyes... Absolutely striking when I saw them for the first time! 😃

Can I say I am in love with your mantises, especially that first one. Such neat weird looking insects.

The first one is a male orchid mantis at adult stage... They're one of my favourite species of mantis too, along side the Devils flower mantis (Idolomantis diabolica. )

I call all the cave geckos "night ninja's"... My mate coined the term and I stole it lmao... Your actually in luck, 2yrs ago my hainanensis got paired and she produced a bumper load that year, like 12... She then retained and produced last year again, bloody 16 of them!
So my kuroiwae got pushed back a year and paired this year... Had 6 babies hatched so far but 3 are hold backs for myself. So there's 3 that will be available soon! 
Here's one of the babies just to tempt you now that I'm using my phone haha

Re: Here's what i keep now.
Lovely pair of boas you have there (don't tell your gf I said that!).
That BRB is a particularly fine specimen.

Re: Here's what i keep now.
what an interesting collection! i've never heard of anyone keeping a mantis before. we get them in the garden here and i'm always happy to see them because they eat the critters that eat my plants.

They're quite commonly kept around the world amongst invert keepers.... Thousands of species around and such a wide range in the way that they look and behave....
Fascinating little badass's of the insect world in my opinion!
