Best Answer

when baby praying mantises hatch they are really hungry and the only food they is their brothers and sisters. So the praying mantis starts eating their brothers and sisters until it finds something else to eat. After when their are done with their brothers and sisters they eat small insects like flys, ants, tree hoppers and other small insects.
