Yes @MantisGirl13 it's time for the mesh cube of doom. I'll have to break him off the thistle shelf and give him his own spot under his heat lamp. 

Just have to figure out where to keep him.

Thinking to throw a plant into his cube for perching  or maybe a gangly knotty stick from a reptile store. Otherwise, just let him roam his mesh until I figure out his surroundings. Wish I still had his missus.

My first adult orchid. I'll take that!  TYVM.

They're not very big, are they?

 

[Mantis Lady]

I have never seen an adult one real life, so I dont know how big they are. But know males are very small

 

[River Dane]

Congratulations on the adult molt! She is gorgeous, what a lovely little lady. 

 

[MantisGirl13]

Wow! She is stunning! Congratulations!!
