My Chinese mantis got through a molt this morning. I thought I was going to have a problem. He hung over a flower and really didn't have enough room.  Somehow he managed with only a slightly bent antenna. Amazing the difference in size.

I may have to move some of the artificial flowers. 

 
Congrats!  Yeah, part of the fun and challenge of enclosure design is making it look nice while still being a safe and functional molting environment.

 
Ok, second molt just ended. Looks like everything went fine. Amazing how much bigger the mantis appears. Ya gotta love these critters!
