Insect Lore Pop up Port a Bug with Live Praying Mantis Egg Case
This product includes the Pop Up Port-A-Bug, a Live Praying Mantis Egg Case and instructions. Egg cases are available mid-January to the end of June, while supplies last.  You must be patient, as the egg cases take 4 to 10 weeks to hatch. It is incredible to watch a cloud of 75 to 200 praying mantises emerge from the egg case! Most of the mantises should be released soon after emergence because praying mantises are carnivorous and will eat their weaker siblings. Keep one or two to observe in your Port-A-Bug for a short time and be sure to provide them with food (like aphids, flies or moths). Food is not included.Shipment of praying mantis egg cases is seasonal, and limited to availability during springtime and early summer months only. Delivery of live egg cases is limited to destinations within the continental USA. We cannot ship them to Alaska or Hawaii.Live Praying Mantis Egg Cases are available separately if you would like to raise even more praying mantises.Recommended for Ages 4 and Up with Adult Supervision.
