Ghost mantis shed to adult

[bugzilla]

The male shed 3 days ago and I've just come home from work to find the female has also shed today

I'll feed them up for the next 3-4 weeks and then have a go at mating them.

Can't wait

Neither of the Ghosts are feeding <_< . The male has eaten one curly wing fly since moulting and the female is still refusing to eat. I left them alone for over 48hrs after moulting.

Is there anything I can do to encourage them into more active feeding?

well assuming the temps are fine?they should be feeding a couple days after mounting.i know my male took 3 days untill it fed again.i have both my adults housed in a sweetie jar and iv thrown about 10 green bottles in there..

How long has it been sinse they shed?if its only been 48hours i wouldn't worry.

Seems like it. The female ate 4 small locusts yesterday but the male just runs away from his. I even saw one try to nibble his leg 'til he got kicked in the head :lol:
