Mantids stop eating before molting then you know when they are close to molting. But is sad she didn't make it. Sorry for your loss

Gratz on the adulthood of Minty. He looks beautiful. Did you name your ghost yet?

Beautiful pics:love: The jumping spider eyes are clear and the mantids, beautiful. I never could make such pics of my mantids sadly enough

Welcome👋
