Goodbye Sparta x

[Ninja_The_Mantis]

Well, my Elmantis, Sparta, has recently passed away. After a couple of days laying uncompleted ooths, I found her resting on a leaf. I got her out to check on her, and found she had gone. She was my last one, and i'm probably not going to get any more.

RIP.

Just a little note, she had seemed to had died with an antennae in her mouth, like she had passed while cleaning it. Has anyone experienced this before? Maybe its like a suicide switch or something. Just wondering.

Goodbye, Sparta xx I will miss you.

RIP little Sparta. I bet she's sipping some honey as we write this.

Thankyou.. I bet she is catching crickets too. She always went a little crazy when eating lol.

I found a picture of her when she was in her 4th instar:



Not a very good picture, but I remember she was in a very strange mood that day XD

Sorry for your loss... some really tug at our heartstrings... Sounds like she left footprints...
