Today my second thistle molted to sub adult and everything looked ok but it accidently fell down to the bottom of the net cage but there was no visible damage or anything that I can see. I managed to get the mantis to hang on to the side of the net cage and it is doing a little twitching and I am wondering if it is hardening its exoskeleton and hope I did do no damage to the mantis trying to help it out and everything looks ok but it just does a little twitching but its not doing anything else or anything but just wondering if it could be ok and if anyone else had a scare like this with theirs?It does not look like its going to die but just going to observe the mantis to be sure everything is ok!
