Praying Mantis

mantises head is a triangular shape body looks like a rectangle.

A leaf mantis eats bugs, as adults they eat bugs like crikets, flys, spiders, and even other mantises.As nymths they eat frutflys, pinhead crikets, and flys.If you ever find one in your backyard consider it as good luck.Good luck!

yes they make a cricket noise

in verry few species (the cricket noise), although some can make a hissing noise whilst performing the threat display by squeezing air out of small holes in the abdomen. I once heard this given off by a european mantis in France when i accidentally startled it.

I just came home from the beach and I found one in my grage and lie in Wisconsin so yes they do look in weeds but the can be camoflaged pretty well!

Sort of but not quite. They are insects so they don't have an internal skeleton like we do but they do have a skeleton: their skeleton is on the outside and that's called an exoskeleton.

A praying mantis will live in the wild for about a year, in captivity they sometimes live up to 14 months.

A female mantid needs a male to fertilize the eggs, as with all animals, but to get the eggs out of her body after they are fertilized, no. In fact, females will often eat males after mating, but still lay their eggs afterwards.

Baby praying mantises only eat very small insects like aphids and fruit flies, which are difficult to catch. I found that if I take a small jar with a lid and punch a hole in the top (1/2" in diameter) and put a banana peel or other fruit waste inside, the fruit flies will naturally be drawn to it and once they enter, they can't find their way out. it is because flies lay their eggs on the fruit and when they hatch they dont know how to escape. I then remove the lid while putting the jar in the mantises' habitat.
Baby mantises can eat several fruit flies per day.

what you need for a pet mantis is a tank the size of the tank depends on how large your mantis is. you will need a mister bottle mist your mantis every day. they need lots of sticks and leaves in their tank. baby mantis eat fruit flies mantis bigger then an inch will eat crickets moths etc.

No, praying mantises only get their wings once they have completed the final molting. Only adult mantises have wings.

Their four legs and body resemble a flower; orchid, and when are born don't have same color as adults. As they grow up in their environment their color changes to fit in. They're a very amazing species!!

Most likely not, they are predatory insects. But since they are the same size I don't think the mantis could kill it. I would not risk it though.

I do not know the exact answer but most praying mantis live in warm and subtropical areas

Yes, you can. Their bite is strong enough to cut through human flesh, however, they're not known to bite humans. Make sure you grab them by the muscular plate below their head and not their abdomen though - their abdomen is very sensitive and they can potentially become frightened and grab you with their spiny claws if you do so.

Yes, they can pinch if threatened. They will lunge out and attempt to pinch, but they usually do not and wild mantises can often be handled. They are not poisonous. Just don't torment them ( don't poke them, push them, or pull on their legs) and you'll be okay.

The praying mantis produces an egg pouch that it puts on a leaf somewhere so it would get about as pregnant as a hen that lays eggs.
I just had a female lay her egg sack. it was really cool to watch. we knew when we found her on my door. She was moving real slow and her belly was dragging. She wouldn't hardly eat the crickets that we got for her now when I woke up this morning 10/30/10 she was making her egg sack in the aquarium that we had her in. It was really cool to see this. Now she is skinny and moving pretty fast.

A medium egg has an energy value of 78 kilocalories (324 kilojoules) and a large egg only supplies just over 330kJ.

A praying mantis is a consumer as they mainly feed off other animals such a beetles.

No. It is not illegal to keep, kill, touch, collect, or in any way harm a praying mantis in the United States. They are not endangered, nor are they even that rare in most areas. In fact, the Praying mantis found in much of the United States is actually an invasive species from Europe introduced in 1899. There is a common Old Wives Tale that the praying mantis is protected and cannot be killed, but this is not true. The only occasion in which it would be illegal to catch or kill a mantis is in a Narional Park or other protected land where all the wildlife is protected.

depends on wich one is bigger but if it can a scorpian will eat it

The "right" day for prayer can vary depending on religious beliefs and traditions. For Muslims, Friday is considered a special day for communal prayers, known as Jumu'ah. In Christianity, Sunday is typically the day for communal worship. Ultimately, the right day for prayer is subjective and depends on individual faith practices.

they eat mice grasshoppers and a lost of other bugs

Yes they do, but it depends on the species.

An its mostly just the males who can fly whilst in search of a female

A partridge eats insects.
