We had been tending to a nest of praying mantises for a couple months and they finally hatched in the last days of June. We can't wait to see these little guys grow and go to work in our garden. They are supposedly very handy for eating all sorts of bugs. We've seen videos of them actually attacking mice as well as hummingbirds. I certainly hope they don't go after the latter of the two, but it I must admit it would be very interesting to see!
We ordered our nest from Peaceful Valley Farm and Garden Supply at
