H. membranacea final molt

[Mantis Lady]

Yup, like @Synapzesaid. If she is going to hang on her legs she starts.

Go kama, you can do it!

Kama finally molted! What can I do to help make sure her wings inflate 

 

[Synapze]

Yea! It must feel a little like Xmas. ?

As much as I would want to witness the inflation I would try to give her some privacy. Hopefully someone will give a second opinion.

 

[Mantis Lady]

Let her just inflate her wings. I watched mine doing it whitout disturbing her. I could open the doors of her home.

 Leave her alone at least for a day to harden her skin and fold her wings. If I remebering it right Cochise was ready to eat after 2 days. But dont know how it will go with Kama. I can imagine you are relieved now, the molting is done. I was?

I am so glad she molted ok! Just let her do her own thing to inflate her wings. Kama is a pretty name!

Thank you all so much for helping me, I really appreciate it.

I got the name Kama from the Japanese word for mantis, kamakiri.
