Don't quote me, but I believe it is Wah Lum.
Praying Mantis are carnivores, with the exception of the Chinese Mantis who occasionally ingests pollen.
Yes, they do(all insects do)
Usually, The European mantis is common, but it could be a different one. The Chinese praying mantis is common in east TN. This is the large green/tan mantis. The Carolina praying mantis is also found in east Tn. It is much smaller and more aggressive, usually with a more brown cast to it, with lesser claws than the Chinese.
In length from what I've been reading is the chinese mantis or Tenodera sinensis or the Plistospilota guineensis.
The Chinese mantis
Chinese praying mantis females generally grow to be around 6 inches long, which is very big for pet mantids. The males are generally smaller but not by much.
Over 20 species are native to the United States, including the common Carolina Mantis, with only one native to Canada. Two species (the Chinese Mantis and the European Mantis) were deliberately introduced to serve as pest control for agriculture, and have spread widely in both countries. Additionally, there is a strong market in the exotic pet trade for mantis species from Asia, Africa and South America, and many species are bred in captivity for this purpose.
