[QUOTE="Gaylordlizard, post: 341920, member: 12117"] Hey y'all Momo's been enjoying their adult life so far so well. I know adult mantis's don't eat so much too. However, Momo doesn't seem to like the food I have for them? I ran out of silkworms/silk moths a while back. Now I only have mealworms and roaches which they seem to have next to no interest in. I feed Momo every 3-4 days but sometimes go to about a week (spraying water in between) because they just don't seem to be hungry. When I first introduced Momo to the small roaches, they were hesitant, almost as if they didn't know if they could eat them or not. Definitely not momo's first food of choice. I just went up a size in mealworms cuz I figured Momo could handle it, and now momo's continuing to act uninterested. It's been about 4 days since I last fed Momo a roach and I would think that they're hungry but are they...? Is Momo just being bougie? Thanks in advance 👽 [/QUOTE]
