I check the weather on the receiving side before packing any order. Weather in many of the eastern states is too low to ship safely at the moment.  Orders in those areas will be held until it is safe.  Please be advised that if your weather is too far below freezing, usually at or below 20F, I will hold your order until it warms up a bit.  This only pertains to orders containing any live specimens.  You can still order if you want to buy something that has come into stock that you do not want to miss out on.  Just make sure you are OK with it being held here until it is safe to ship.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

All orchids sold out but more ooths have started to hatch. I will post them in a week or 2.

I have added plenty this time. There should be enough to go around, but we will see how the next day or 2 goes. I raised the limit per person to 10. Any more than that and you will have to contact me directly but I plan to wait a few days before selling in bulk to resellers.

So, yeah. I will be posting orchids again on the 1st. Most likely at midnight PST or just shortly afterwards. There should be plenty this time around however there are still a ton of people on the wait list. I may raise the limit on how many can be purchased, but it will still be capped (sorry!).

I normally do not give such a specific time frame however Yahoo and AOL are still blocking many of my emails, so people who sign up for notifications may not always receive them.

I have disabled priority shipping for now due to issues with USPS mail. I know the other options are a bit more spendy, but with the increase in shipping delays, coupled with the cold weather, it simply is not safe to ship live nymphs via priority mail. Even express shipping is 2-3 days now fairly often.

My mantiskingdom email was down for a couple days since I was not aware that it expired as I use mantiDkingdom now, so I apologize to anyone who is getting late responses from me as most emails are just now coming through. I imagine some may have timed out, so if you have not received a reply from me for several days, please resend your email. If you STILL do not get a reply, it may be because I don’t like you. Just kidding. Sort of…

All orders are shipping Monday due to the holiday this week. Some of you already got an email about it, but due to my email issues I have noticed some of you were not aware.

I had more orchids hatch and am expecting more ooths to hatch in a week or so. The next batch will be posted before Thanksgiving.

I am posting a group of orchids tonight. I also just had another ooth hatch with a few more to go so if you miss out on this batch just add yourself to the wait list again to be notified when the next group will be ready.
