I'm really interested in using the Chinese Mantis as a feeder for my young veiled, Rinoa. Here are a few pics of her (she's a little camera shy). What I'm mostly wondering about is the size of the newly hatched mantids, and whether they'd be appropriate for feeding her right after hatching, or if I should grow them for a little bit before feeding them off. How long after hatching until they're too big to be fed to her? I'm also wondering about the nutritional value of mantids; do they need to be dusted like other feeders or not? Thanks for reading/helping everyone.
