- Today we unbox some incredible praying mantises produced by Luke, a 9-year-old in California! These were purchased to resell in our retail store, and we were so impressed by him that we decided to share them with you :) Luke is a great example of how younger enthusiasts can do great things for the reptile, amphibian, and invertebrate hobby!

That boy is only nine years old and he’s already cooler than me lol. It’s impressive he breeds praying mantises at his age, and even has his own store!
Well u can do the same, everyone is cool at diffrent things. Maybe find ur fav reptilian or amphibian and breed them! I do geckos since they are easy but u choose.
Same
@Unknown User please don’t say your age on the internet, it could be dangerous
ikr.
Knowing ur age isn’t going to do anything. Lol. “Oh I know your age now I can come kidnap you”
Normally I'm a little iffy about "encouraging" young kids to be into breeding as its a lot of responsibility but this kid made his own micro-terrariums just to transport them... you go kiddo!
I agree that kids shouldn't be left alone to try and do this stuff on their own with no real help.
But with the right help and encouragement and support they can be as great if not better than adults.
My sister was a guinie pig breeder at a young age. And she was great at it, she put so much effort into her pigs.
Cause she had all our support to make sure she did it right.
@@Lexzah I started breeding rabbits at 16 and that was an absolute disaster XD
Thing is a lot of kids will say they want baby animals, who doesn't... but very few are prepared for the responsibility.
I would say the rule is kids should not reading animals, however there are exceptions to every rule.
If feel like it should be encouraged. I bred mice when I was younger and it taught me a lot about being responsible as an adult.
@@itsthatonechickagaincallth7843 the problem with that is that the majority of children are not responsible enough to be able to breed animals at all regardless of how much assistance from their parents they get, unless their parents do all the work. At which point the kid isn't being taught anything and the parents are wasting a lot of money.
Luke clearly has very responsible adults showing him the ropes. He's learning the right way and that should always be encouraged. Very impressive.
He does! His mum is extremely experienced and has taught him :')
except for comic sans lmao
@@brendand-lf8jm idk lol comic sans looks fine in some things
u sound fun
Oh kenobi shut you're crap we all know you're a coward
I grew up in Japan and mustering up courage to pick up a Japanese giant mantis (they are everywhere in fields) was a rite of passage for little kids. And those giant mantises feel truly giant in little kids’ hands. To me, Luke is a hero for handling so many mantises!
Also, I’m SUPER impressed with Luke’s professionalism and all the thought and passion he puts into his mantises. His excellent handmade habitats and including care guide handouts for the customers really blew me away!
You mean Tenodera sp, mantids? Yes, these magnificient critters are truly massive. also very easy as hell to keep and make good introduction to invert hobby.
Think of them as faires
Kids do most things with full enthusiasm
Untainted by life’s problems and responsibilities
fore the record yall, the tutu material is called "tool/tule" you can buy yards of it at fabric stores!
tulle
I was honestly going to comment on it and you already did 👍🏻
@@annacoons5578 lets hope snake discovery pins this comment so others can learn lmao
Also tulle material ( tutu material) can be bought at Walmart as well as their website.
Polyester Organza or Dress Net would probably work too as they are similar to Tulle.
Aida and Scrim also have a wide weave that would allow airflow but I think they might get icky from the humidity as they aren't synthetic.
Something I've heard too often: "Kids don't do anything these days. They just sit around on their devices."
Luke: "Hold my Praying Mantis..."
Luke always watches Snake Discovery and Coyote Peterson. Those are his two favorite people on the planet :) So he learned about praying mantises from Emily and Coyote Peterson showing them on their channels. When Covid hit and Luke couldn't hang with his friends, he began finding mantis nymphs in our garden and that's how the fun began :)
yes!!!!
@@LukeBugAdventures that's honestly really wholesome, I'm glad Luke is doing something he loves :)
This needs more likes
Luke is going places. Wish I were like him when I was a kid. lol I was frightened of my own shadow. Though, as an adult, I have come to love bugs, especially arachnids and mantises. Glad Luke found something he loves doing and that he's educated too. Hope he keeps doing what he's doing, because mantises are metal af.
Luke: Breeds mantises, already has a business, manages his own products, and practices proper etiquette when packaging
Me when I was Luke's age:
* *struggles to make a paper airplane* *
Unbelievable kid, wish I was more like him
Haver you ever considered the possibility that adults use their children to sell their products? One of the oldest marketing strategies in human history. Its far more likely that he helps his parents than a 9 yo being the mind of a business.
@@gabrielgoncalves2763 seems like he actually breeds the inseccts, but his parents are the ones who manage his business
Im 10,and im trying to start mice breeding,but i probably wont be able to find a pair. I actually bought a pregnant female from fishland (out local petstore) where i got 2 feeders for my snake,and 4 for pets (incluing the female) she had her babies like a week ago,and now we have 6-12 pinkies,they should start growing fur in a few days,we will either feed or sell them at around hopper size. So maybe i will start breeding? Idk. I wanna start tho
I still cant make paper airplanes and I'm 18
@@mccamokat Nice! We’re there any deaths? I wouldn’t dare get or breed snakes cause I don’t want to handle any dead mice heh
Also prtty smart breeding mice and take some for feeding a snake, I don’t know anything about breeding but I would guess keeping ab 4 and breeding 2 pairs together?

@@sarad2487 Hi Sara! I'm Luke! Thanks so much!!!!
I'm here because of Luke! Thanks for showing everyone the fruits of his (and his mother's) labor! He is a mantis community sweetheart! :-D
thats sweet ❤️❤️❤️💝💝💝
The kid's legit
This kid is more intelligent than me snd he's 9
Does the female mantis eat the male mantis or is it a mith or something else and I am your biggest fan like yours videos keep it up
Are mantises fun to watch and keep like ants
Law students are ALSO called L1s L2s and L3s (to denote which year in law school they are.) it makes my dad’s joke “Lawyers are just politicians in larval form” all the more apt!
That is hilarious!
Lol, love this and love your dad’s joke

What country? In Canada it’s 1L/2L/3L.
@@sarahkatie7497 Yeah, in the US, it's also 1L/2L/3L
I am a nine year old, it makes me very happy that people my age can do this stuff so maybe I can!
Thank you for your hard work in videos aswell!
Yes! You go girl.
You can do it!
You go mate!
I'm also nine I have four mantids that I raised
I’m 10, I wish I was as epic as him
I loved when i successfully breed my betta fish when I was younger. I didn't have a way to sell the babies, so I kept them. My parents were not happy about all the fish tanks. Lukes parents must be super supportive!

@@Lozzo1390 I wanted a orchird mantis but I got a Chinese praying mantis eggs instead mostly because of the size
They big bois
Hi Emily and Ed!!! Thank you so so so so so so so so so much! It's Luke! You're so kind to me! Thank you! I'm so happy you like the mantises!
The work you do is so admirable! Keep doing what you’re doing, Luke :)

Wowww, Luke is SCARY good at business. Thats incredible, and the forethought to include his own media handles so when they're sold he gets continued advertisement. Absolutely brilliant, this kid is going BIG places.
Most kids: have a lemonade stand to make pocket money
Luke: sounds boring, I have a better idea >:D

lmaoooooooooooo
This is like me except I'm 13 and breed giant silk moths, mostly moon moths and cecropia moths
not >:D just :>
@@IAmAnItalianPizza dw dw the >:D is just because I think it's cute and fits
You could tell emily was in love with the purple eyed mantis. She was just like "WOAH ITS EYES ARE PURPLE!"
Also, Shout out to Luke the most responsible 9 yr old ever! He made beautiful homes for the mantises
Yeah more responsible than me also a 9 yr old
It's so cool that Luke found a passion and his parents were there to help nurture that passion. 10/10 parenting. 10/10 kid. And 10/10 on this video for highlighting all of that.
What an amazing 9 year old! This shows how important it is to nurture a child’s passion. Seriously. They are so capable when they are given guidance and support - they can do anything. What a great kid and such supportive parents.
I'm very impressed with the thought and detail put into everything from the travel enclosure to the care sheets. You can tell he is PASSIONATE about what he does!
Hello Cassandra. I'm Luke. Thank you so much.
@@LukeBugAdventures you're very welcome. I've visited your TH-cam channel and intended on checking out a lot of your content! Keep up the good work!!!
@@LukeBugAdventures you got yourself a new subscriber my boy!

@@taoutdoors8110 Hi. I'm Luke. Thank you so much! This is so nice of you! I'm very happy you like my videos and I love sharing my vision of animals with friends like you!
Mantises are so pretty! Very very cool video! Really neat to learn that there are communal Mantises. Incredible to see someone so young too taking care of these insects.
ayo its the music guy

Omg dude you watch Snake Discovery too? Thats so pogger
Hello 👋
The way that he's so professional making all the teeny terrariums and breeding responsibly is so cute STAN LUKE!!
What a special kiddo and a cool thing to be passionate about. Sometimes, our youth are so thoughtful and caring. It looks like he’s doing a great job with his work. I wish him all the success in his Mantis endeavors!
As someone with ADHD, those care guides look beautiful. The color coding and spacing makes it incredibly easy to read, and the font looks like it might be dyslexia friendly too (I’m not dyslexic so I can’t say for sure). Overall it is amazingly designed and very customer friendly!!
...side note I love all the mantises, especially the spiny ones at the end!!
The spacing does make it easier but its lettre height that gets me specificaly. The fonts used for the care sheets arent specificaly dyslexia friendly but theyre not too hard to read (from what I see atleast).
That fabric is called tulle and you can get it even cheaper by the yard if you ever need a ton of it. It's often used in dresses or skirts to give volume to them without needing hoops.
I think it might be cheaper sometimes to buy the tutus in a dollar store than just to buy the fabric.
@@JutlandAngel definitely not. i work at a pretty pricey fabric store and even our tulle is only around a dollar to $1.50 per yard (usually 36 inches by 48 inches). that’s more than you get from a children’s skirt for the same price.
@@olyvia1380 Well here it's around 15-30 dkk for a meter, and the children tutus for 10-20 dkk has about a meter in them cause there isn't just one layer.
A quick word to parents……please always support your kids with WHATEVER they are passionate about. Luke is fortunate to have a parent or parents that are helping him with this. It’ll be amazing to see where he is in 10 years. Well done Luke AND your family support system!
This is the most wholesome video. What an amazing kid, putting so much passion and energy into his budding business. And then for Ed and Emily to not only support his business by making a large purchase but to also make a dedicated video is just too sweet. 🥰🤩
Emily: Purple eyes are cooler than the actual insect. Lol

I saw this title and it was totally unexpected but this must the nice to see a change. They look beautiful though. Pfff I automatically thought of a stick bug with the mantis that was called a twig. The ghost one was my favorite though
Emily: "This sign can't stop me cause it doesn't say STOP."
When I was 9 I barely had the availing to take care of my school supplies let alone BREED MANTISES!! Luke is such a cool 9 year old and I totally aspire to be like him when I grow up.
Bruh I'm a grown up and I'm still aspiring to be like him ngl
man, dudes making a pretty penny at such a young age
If you factor in cost of starting supplies, ongoing supplies, costs of enclosures, hours of work involved and shipping materials/costs, I'd be surprised if he is making minimum wage. I guess it would come down to the volume being produced, but either way this is a LOT of work. Props to his parents for supporting his interest.
@@aartadventure I totally agree with this since that's typically how it goes. I do hope that Emily and Ed did the boy right by paying a good price unlike other TH-camrs who would try to get discounts. Also I hope that this video helps to get him more customers but over all I can tell he truly loves his insects and has a good support system behind him aka his family. I'm very impressed that a 9yr old is putting more effort and love into everything unlike a lot of adults. Makes me hopeful for the future.
@@aartadventure, well he's using plastic cups, fake moss, tutus, and fake flowers and if he's breeding them, then the only thing really is food, as all that other stuff isnt very expensive, and even if he isnt earning a lot, its better than most of us did at nine
@@wyvernknight and shipping, and labels, and packing peanuts, glue, stickers, fresh moss, all the printing and probably so much more. Most likely he will also have to breed his own feeders, which then makes it even more effort and ever more resources. And then, at cost mantids are sold I am impressed if he is making any profit.
Don’t underestimate how much resource is going into running business, its usually 3x/4x more than meets the eye!
@@wyvernknight i dont think he is using fake moss. They need to maintain high humidity, so i believe its sphagnum moss
He's done such a good job at this. Way ahead of what I & I imagine most kids would do.
His parents must be so supportive. From a fellow life long animal lover, never lose that passion Luke. Keep up this great work.

awww! my 4 year old son saw Emily & dropped everything & said “ooh our favorite show!” 🥺 thanks to you & Ed for creating something for our family to watch together and bond over!
I love Emily and Ed and Snake Discovery so much. I have been watching them since I was 5. I've learned so much from them.
My 5yo daughter is the same way!
This kid is amazing. Like. What a wonderful, responsible kid! I love mantises, and seeing how much care and effort he's putting into them - it's not even "good for his age," it's just straight up amazing.
Thank you so much! I'm Luke. Thank you!
@@LukeBugAdventures Thank you, Luke! Thank you for sharing your insects with us, and thank you for taking care of them. So many people forget how wonderful the smaller creatures in the world can be. Your hard work, and enthusiasm and knowledge for your insect friends is impressive. My friends and I are all about Emily and Ed's age - but we've all subscribed to your channel and are very excited to learn from you!
That kid is so adorable in his pictures with mantises!! Luke is going places, I wish nothing but the best for him and his buggy friends! Another comment I read also said his mom is involved, so I wish her the best as well!
For a split second I thought you said "eight inch crickets" when you actually said "eighth inch crickets" lmao
Warning do not eat packing peanuts
Emily: well time to eat some packing peanuts!
They are made out of potato starch
@@UlexiteTVStoneLexite it was a joke but good to know!
She ought to have gotten a bag of those really, really cheap store-brand cheese-puffs and had one or two of those. They're like a step above packing peanuts, but not that far ahead.
Lol, SO true.
please give an update on ed's deformed snapper. We really need to know when things die or thrive! Updates please!.
I second thee!
Yes

Quasi is alive as of the last mail stream.
What’s a snapper?
I appreciate that you spotlight young kids and give them a lil more confidence.
Wow. Luke is dedicated in raising Mantis. I applaud to him. Keep it up Luke
Hi Rodrick. I'm Luke. Thank you very much!
It's so great the efforts that Luke went to for his little business. I am impressed ❤ good job Luke. Your parents must be very proud of you. Stay blessed everyone.
Wow I LOVE those cups! Luke did an amazing job, those mantises traveled in first class! It's obvious he cares alot and will be a great breeder for years to come
Thank you! I'm Luke. Thank you so much!
I’m super impressed that he’s 9 years old and knows how to breed praying mantises. That kid is far more mature beyond his years. He’s got an awesome future ahead of him.
Me at 9 years old .can’t even take care of my school supplies
Luke: I am going to achieve more than any 9 year old has
Orchid mantis is my absolute favorite! Was hoping one of them would of been in that bunch
We don't have a hatch currently but we're expecting another special flower mantis hatch in 2 weeks. Hi. I'm Luke. I love raising Orchid mantises :) We've raised about 30 Orchids so far
@@LukeBugAdventures how much are your mantises?Do you have a website that people buy from?
@@veronicacastillo4063 I don't have a website but please message me at #lukebugadventures on instagram. Thank you! :)
This video was just pure gold. I have no interest in mantis at all but to see the effort this young man went to is just amazing. The other thing that warms my heart is how you and Ed praise and encourage this budding breeder. What a truly good channel this is, you guys are amazing
Wow you can really see how much Luke loves and cares for each mantis, he's an awesome breeder ^^
Hi. I'm Luke. Thank you so much!
Luke, you are so awesome dude!!! At 9 years old I don't think I could have ever done what you do!!! Keep rocking man!!!
Props to Luke for figuring out you can use toule fabric for ventilation before I even did for my jumping spider! I thought I was being so innovative 😂
Hey if you came to the idea on your own it's still innovative. Don't sell yourself short.
@@cutecats532 seconded @Kaitlin thats rad either way!

Changed it lol
This kid is one of the coolest and amazing 9 year olds ever. I wish him the best.
Also- I fecking love this
Luke: *Breeding animals*
Me who’s a few years older: Wat!?
even if the mantis' grow out of the cups personally i would keep the cups, thay are cute and could be reused maybe.
Yes, they are 9 oz so for a small species, you can keep one there for a few months. Hi. I'm Luke
Luke put more effort into his mantids than I’ve put into my entire life.
Luke definitely deserves praise because he clearly cares about his animals, but we should also praise his parents or whatever adult has helped him out, too! He's definitely had someone showing him the ropes and helping him along the way and teaching him and that's so cool.
That he's so responsible so young is just amazing!
Luke is impressive! At such a young age being responsible for all this as well as handling some of the business aspects of it, he's learning a lot and it will come in handy when he grows older. His skills in customer service, attention to detail and finance. :D wowie! Amazing what can happen when you help nurture an interest.
Also, the spiny mantis is so interesting! Would have never known these facts if you didn't make a video about them. Thank you for keeping all of us learning and also to better ourselves too!
I am really impressed with the format of his care sheet. He is incredibly mature for his age and is obviously doing what he loves
I love to see children going for their dreams,, I think Luke's parent(s) should be congratulated for raising such a responsible young man as well,, he is going places, already more successful at a business than my 50-year-old self! Way to go Luke!
Wow this little boy is such a delight!
There's even a joke on the care guides! What a sweetheart
I just went and followed Luke’s Channel and I’m getting ready to watch the few videos he has up ☺️❤️ hope all of the support from his I also followed his Instagram! I hope his channel blows up from this!! You guys probably made his day, week, month even life. The smile on his face when he talked about you guys getting his babies said it all ❤️ you guys are so amazing
Hi! Thank you so much for following! I finally got to meet Emily and see Snake Discovery - it's been my dream for so long! We came back through Yellowstone and picked up a bug so the whole family was sick (not covie). So now I'm loading my visit with Emily video in the next 2 days!!! My dream came true!!!! Emily is the kindest funnest person!!!! I got to hold Cheyenne!!!
@@LukeBugAdventures wait are you the breeder? as a 10 year old who is super into mantids that is SO FRICKEN COOL
@@couldyou_dont Thanks! That's awesome that you like mantises too! I hope you can go to a reptile expo or a reptile shop that has lots of different species of mantises! I have a few mantis videos up and I need to edit and load more! I have around 30 species of mantises right now.
This reminds me of how I used to breed guppies when I was about his age. As long as you are passionate about what you are doing and properly taking care of your animals, then do not let age or inexperience deter you from working with them.

I am SO glad Ed stopped her to show off the mantis drinking water from her hand! That was my favorite part of the entire video!! So cute!!! 😍😍😍
I loved this because I watched it with my Praying panties (Leaf). She is a leaf mantis I think, she could be a ghost mantis. I loved watching this with her because we just lost her

That's so amazing that a *9 year old* is breeding these critters! Amazing job kid, can't wait to see his small business grow. You can really tell he cares for these bugs!
Thank you! Yes, LUke's up early to mist his mantises, check for molts, clean their habitats, etc. He also donates his birthday and holiday $$ every year to trees.org so animals and insects will have forest homes :)
@@LukeBugAdventures That's so sweet and generous!
This boy is going to be a great mantis breeder. So proud of this young man and hoping the best for him
It's always refreshing to see a kid being entrepreneurial, especially about something they're passionate about. His work is so professional too I'm so impressed
There are adults who don't put that much effort into their businesses and this kid is friggin 9 and the attention to detail and customer satisfaction and animal health and behavior is insane! I pray this kid keeps going in this direction! The world needs more of him!
Mantises are the cutest little insects I will ever know. Their little angular faces are so tiny and adorable and they can wave!
The ghost mantis was freaking adorable but the spiny flower mantis has been my favourite for a long time already, and this video changes nothing. They're so beautiful!
I just discovered you because my 3 year old is profoundly deaf and obsessed with Bugs and insects I appreciate the closed captions and content to learn and share with her. A steadier camera for up close insect filming would be amazing!!
Hi! I'm Luke! I've loved bugs my whole life. I hope you visit Snake Discovery some day because Emily and Ed have so many insects now!!! I have a few videos on my channel all about mantises and butterflies so your baby will like those I think!
Listen to the child, don’t eat the packing peanuts

Sirously i am very impressed by him:o. He is nine and he is like a full blown entrepreneur. This realy is some impressive work and he realy cares for his mantises:). It show in all the detail in all of his work:).
Thank you so much. My mom helped me type the care guides. I'm Luke
Naw that's realy sweet of her:) and hi luke i already watched the video you have on your youtube and i realy liked it:).
Luke is pretty special. Luke if you are seeing this: amazing dude, those little habitats are amazing and being able to breed such specialized animals.
I fell in Love with Luke when I seen the video on his page visiting Snake Discovery!! He has charisma & I could tell Emily & Ed inspire him. His parents are wholesome they encourage him all the way.
Mantis are so cute, I love in a cold climate but went to Greece and there were so many
I’m young and u guys inspired me. So since I can’t get a snake I decided to do leopard gecko breeding and currently doing the same as him lol. I’ll be getting some baby’s soon and I’ll sell them.
Good luck bro!
me too!! i incubated some leo eggs in a heated closet and they actually hatched lol. hoping to sell the babies by august!
I want one
Congrats!
What’s your shop? Or are you selling at a reptile expo?
My favs-the ghost and spiny flower! I love the habits he put together...they are beautiful! He is an amazing kid.
I can see why the spiny flower is your favorite. It’s mine too! They are so pretty!
They are beautiful and interesting because at every molt, they change into a new type of flower.
@@LukeBugAdventures Wow! I never knew that! That’s super cool!
Luke WOW dude! You truly have a passion and great love for these guys and it shows! Best mantis breeder that I’ve ever seen, at NINE! Many adult breeders could learn from you. Well done, truly!! 👌❤️❤️
Wow! Maybe that kid could work with you one day!
I love that you said with and not for. Heezah.

I know i do
I am so impressed with Luke and his adorable mantises a and all of the amazing care he gives them! I am obsessed with the Spiny Flowers!
I'm amazed by the level of skill and knowledge that young Luke has, as well as creative genius. I have got to go follow him here, he sounds awesome.
I love the way Luke packed and shipped his Mantis, very impressive. They are so cute and so fun. My favorite is the spiny flower. Good job Luke!
I sent this to my teacher how loves prying mantises and I have five in my cup thing and we all love them. Tip if one is molting don’t put crickets which them they will eat the mantis.
Emily!! OMG! This is Luke and mom!!! Thanks Thanks Thanks °° we're screaming rn!!!
I doubt you're actually them. Emily said their TH-cam channel in the video, and if you were addressing her, it would make much more sense to use the more popular one so that everyone knows it's you. Although I could be wrong. if I am, ignore me.
Even AntsCanada had a hard time breeding mantis! 💞🤟 Such a great worker, Luke!
I absolutely love praying mantises! Can't wait to pick one of these up when the zoo opens!
I can't wait to go to Snake Discovery too!
