Falling mantids

[maneatingmoo]

For some reason, I keep hearing a little click or crunch sound from my mantid tank, and I look at them and one of them is laying on the ground. They keep falling off of the screen top or the sides. Is this some kind of sign, like they're weak and need to eat more? I feed them a cricket or moth every couple of days.

i think that is a sign of weakness. feed them more often

if theyre too weak to even hang from the roof i doubt they will be strong enough to catch or even hold any food. sounds like theyre on the way out, sorry.

This sounds like they are about to die. There's little you can do...sorry
