Hi There

[KMarie]

Hello and Good Morning!

Im Katie,just joined and we currently have our first Praying Mantis, who unfourtunetly might be dying! Our son caught him outside and has a passion for bugs, so we decided to keep him and up until now, he was doing great!

I'm unsure exactly what he is but he's abut 2 1/2 inches long and completely green.

Hopefully he recovers from what i THINK is a fall or bad moult,but if not I'd be intrested to learn about the other Mantid's out there. Maybe eventually I'll be willing to handle them myself!

Have a beautiful day, if you ave any questions about our mantid, just ask!

Welcome! I have one that fell while she was molting and she's doing great. It was rough going at first though. I now understand what I did wrong, but I didn't at first! I hope you find what you need here!

Did you do anything to help her after she fell? Mine is still moving his antennas and mouth, so I know its still alive, but I don't want to harm it by moving it. Thanks for some hope though!
