Camouflage !.. A preying mantis eats insects for food. Being 'disguised' as a leaf makes it harder for the prey to see it until it's too late.
Preying mantises need live food. Just leave the insect in the jar with the mantis. If the mantis will not eat, that probably means that it is not hungry.
Yes they certainly can. My praying mantis loves it
Very often they eat their siblings when they are that small. Other insects that a mantis of that size can eat would be fruit flies, gnats, aphids, etc. As long as the mantis can handle it's prey, it will eat anything.
