Hey everyone, I'm just wondering, how can you tell if a scorpion's about to molt? Joe

I've had this problem with my chinese ooth before, It could be humidity but the way i do it now it have a wet paper towel at the bottom and spray it heavily so the mantids have plenty of humidity so they can come out of they're eggs easily. Joe

I had this happen to my adult male d. desiccata. and it was only 5 weeks old. but it attempted to mate with my female 20 times and kept "missing" so i think it died of early old age. Joe

And thats not a male, thats a female D. horrificata.. just insuring Joe

Yeah i had the same problem lol thanks too. :) Joe

Mantids are always weak and wont eat for several days after a molt. It should be able to eat again in 2-3 days. dont worry about it. :) Joe
