[QUOTE="DrakeLineous, post: 273086, member: 8015"] When this female had a bad molt I thought that was it for her, especially after reading all the stories about other mantids that fell while shedding. I was pretty surprised the next day when I saw that she had climbed to the top of the enclosure considering that she only had one good walking leg. Fast forward to now, about a week later, she's doing great and has fed quite a few times and is still climbing all over. Pretty far from just crawling around the bottom which I was expecting. I'm not sure if adding more sticks and plants in there would make it more difficult for her to move around what with three bum legs and all or if it would make keeping everything clean harder. I don't want her catching a fungus or mold or whatever in her current state. [ATTACH]5366._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]5367._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]5368._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
