[QUOTE="MantidBro, post: 217852, member: 6731"] I realized that I, too, was more attached to Majesty than I was attached to Sir. When Sir died, I didn't feel nearly as bad. Sir was more of an anxious mantid, and not very interactive, while Majesty was just the opposite. She was curious, interactive, friendly. Plus she made it to adult hood while Sir didn't, meaning I had Majesty longer, so that could also be why it affected me more. Mismolts are the worst. I already love the nymphs, and I'll love them even more as they grow and I've spent more time with them. I plan to keep two of them full term. :) I knew it would be a never-ending cycle, the mantids dying, because they do have short life spans. But they're worth it. You know, if it weren't for Majesty, I never would have realized my true passion is studying animals and insects. I want to be an Ethologist or Entomologist. Heck, if Majesty made me realize my life-career, she was pretty darn important, lol. [/QUOTE]
