[PrayingMantisPets]

Yeah like her body is against the floor and she cant stand? That happens to mine after they molt too. How long has it been since she molted? a day?

she molted on 1/10/15 at 10:37

her body lays on the floor and her face is flat on the ground.

Aweesome! i think it was just cause she was still fresh afTer the molt. Thats why they hang upside down after molting, they cant quite walk yet. They gotta harden and stiffen up first

A slight mismolt, is that the only leg? any other deformities?

 

[PrayingMantisPets]

her back right leg looks a little bent but unnoticeable. she can hang pretty well on her own.

here she is

Never had a mantis molt yet so I couldn't help earlier. I'm glad to see she is doing fine though now.
