How to keep a praying mantis alive in winter?

I have had a praying mantis since October 2010. In January 2011 the praying mantis is still with us. Although she has slowed alot over these past few months she continues to eat well. I have been feeding her lunch meat, turkey, ham, roast beef, chicken, bologna and scrambles eggs. Recently she hasn't seemed to be able to chew the solid food as she had so I am now feeding her meat based baby food. She take water from a baby spoon.

Mist the cage or leave a small dish of it. Don't worry about the mantis drowning - they breathe through holes in their abdomen, so they can safely submerge their entire head while drinking. They also get a part of their water from their prey.

What kind of fruit does a praying mantis eat?

Not fruits: Praying Mantis's or Mantids prefer to catch their own food. You can purchase crickets, meal worms, or other insects at many pet stores, or catch flies and release them into the mantis's cage. Their diet is high in protein, so if you have a pet and it is unable to get food on it's own, you may be able to give small amounts of canned (ground) cat food slowly by spoon...nudging it gently towards it's mouth. Water it the same way if unable to fend for its self.
