Okay!! Wow. That's really weird because he only molted like three times since I got him and he was a nymph when I bought him and had yet to molt. Oh well. Anyway, yes I do have an adult female but she keeps freaking him out with threatening postures and attacks. :mellow: Once I had the tank with a separator in the middle for the two of them and when I went to feed them I noticed he was staring at her in a weid kind of posture like ready to jet at any moment. <_< When I got a little lower and looked at the tank he could see her and viceverse. She was in that threat posture with her arms all up and what not and before I knew it she kind of swung at him but was unable to get him through the partition. :angry: Poor little guy started running around the tank and when I went to rescue him to give him a break he flew right out of the tank, onto my locks, and ran to the top of my head where my little man (nephew) said, he was staring right at the tank where she was and looking or leaning from side to side looking for her to come "kill him!!!!" :( And to this day it's the same way with them. Everytime she sees him she throws those arms up and he know Exactly what that means. SO, I don't see how I could possibly mate the two if she doesn't get some mantid Prozac or something to chill her out!!! What do I do about this. I feel kind of bad for the little guy all he wants is a chance to get things right with her!!
