I will try to attach a picture later. I blame myself for this mis molt I messed up and did not have the soil damp enough and although I misted frequently i dont think there was enough humidity. His two back tibia's are very messed up and he cannot use them I feel like a terrible person He has not other mis molts this is his first he is an l7 i believe and he has one more time to try to fix it before he reaches adult hood. Do you think that he will live? @CosbyArt

 
Ah geez hate to hear this. I know that Mantids go through a lot of molts and have time to regenerate depending on which stage they are in. Don't lose hope. I have raised Carolinas and Ghost Mantids and I had a few issues with both. Just hang in there and hope for the best.

 
I think that he will live and he will be okay but I hope that they will be usable after his next molt @SunOfRa
