et survivor

[Utopia93]

Of my eggs 3 have hacthed so far. 2 just recently dies for no reason. Only the eldest survived. His color has completelty changed. He is a L1. He is almost 3 weeks old. He hasnt move much lately. IS he preparing to molt? Will "she" survive to lay eggs to create a good colony?

will she make it?

 

[buddhistsoldier88]

will she make it?

Probably gonna molt it sounds like. Does she move slower when she does move? if so its a possibility of molt

 

[Utopia93]

she is always in teh same postion even if theres barelya nything to cling to.

I would say going to molt!

Give it a few days and fingers crossed all will be good in the end.

I have heard that they are difficult at the nymph stage with hgh losse.

The hatchlings always change colour to a almost grey coolouration b4 moulting, as for the other 2 it just happens a lot with phasmids as theres so many, why do u say she, is it form a parthenogenetic laying female?

 

[Utopia93]

i meant to type that she from a parthenogenic female. How long before she molts? and afterward is tehre a chance she wont survive to adulthood?

 

[hellohiashley]

she is moulting and there isnt any reson why she wont make it =]

good luck

i had a lot of problems with mine and now loook at them there massive !

last night she was having wierd movements. This morning I found her in the top corner of her cage. How long more before teh actual molt?

 

[Utopia93]

jeez she is takin forever. she hasnt even spilt her skin yet. How long is the process?

 

[Utopia93]

she still has done squat. should i worry?

she finally molted. I decided to name her Priscilla. Are there any complications after 1st molt? I switched her diet to mulberry.
