Has anyone had experience keeping a mantis in an open space?
I am getting a giant rainforest nymph soon, i have a 2ltr jar set up with ventilation ect to use as his/her home but I cannot do a lot with the lack of space I want to make the enclosure/habitat as natural as possible and I do not have many other options as for housing the mantis. I read somewhere online that people somtimes keep them on a plant? has anyone ever done this and what are the pros and cons? Any input/advice would be great!

I don't have any experience with it but it doesn't sound like a good idea. I don't think a mantis will stay on the plant. I think it would go all over your house and you wouldn't be able to find it.
I have kept a few mantis, not as large as the giants, but I had a 20 gallon aquarium set up like a natural habitat complete with live plants.
I had on once that was a free roam and indoors can be a dangerous place. A gravid female can lay her egg case anywhere, and then you can have a house full of nymphs that ultimately eat each other.
Your mantis will outgrow a 2 L jar.
