The mantis and spiders are always so healthy and Kelly goes out of her way to accommodate for you. The live food they sell is also of a high quality. Highly recommend mantis mayhem.

Great customer service
We ordered a couple of mantis from mantis Mayhem and they were going to arrive the day i was at work. I got in touch with them to ask if the address could be changed to my work place. They Sorted it all out for me. My little critters arrived safe and sound. Both are happy and healthy. The customer service was amazing, I'll definitely be buying from them again.

Spiderling size doesn't seem I5
My spider was well packed, i ordered a Widow Jumping spider, although it most definitely isn't an I5 spider and is still teeny tiny. I had some problems with delivery given the delivery guy was careless and threw my package on it's side on my doorstep, definitely would recommend paying the higher price for shipping.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and share your experience. We are glad to hear your spider arrived well packed, but we are sorry for the confusion regarding the instar size and for the delivery issues you experienced. We understand how important accuracy is when ordering spiderlings, and we will be reviewing our descriptions to make them clearer and avoid any discrepancies in the future. Unfortunately, courier handling is outside of our direct control, but we do our best to package all live animals securely.

Confusing description
The description for a female mantis was poorly described resulting in me receiving the wrong thing.
