So this is the second time that this has happened. I was spending time with some of my other mantis's. Something told me to check on Izzie my cat eye mantis. So I did. She was laying on the ground of her cage. My heart dropped thought she was dead. I pick her up. She was barely moving. She was very lethargic. And I realized she was about to molt. I didn't have time to put her at the time I couldn't get her to hardly move her legs, I gently took her in my hand and I put my hand face downward. And she started to molt like a second later. I've had issues in the past with that, I've had people get upset because this happened once before I will do everything and anything for my pets. But when my mantis is in bad shape. And I don't have any other choice. Dang right I will help her. If I hadn't she could've mismolted. I get people will judge but guess what I helped save her life. I would never deliberately put any animal in harms way.
She's fine now on some mesh I tied to a tree and my lamp drying.
