Just a quick question that I haven't found answered before. My female ghost molted to adult today, though not without problems. I found her shortly after on the ground and got her to hang from a branch and she looks to be doing fine. But her wings are still pale even after 3 hours. About how long does it normally take before the wings have their normal appearance.

Thanks in advance,

Zach

 
Well, today it's apparent that the wings have hardened. Shes unable to properly fold them, though everything else seems fine. I hope this won't affect her ability to feed and breed.
