All right so just about everyone knows that the hierodula genus is very voracious and have huge appetites in general. However, I have 6 L3 Majuscula nymphs, and so far its been 2 days since the last one shed. They have barely been eating, except for 2, which are eating like monsters. The rest don't even react when prey moves right past them. In addition, they don't like tackling anything bigger than melonagaster ff's at the moment. It worries me because the giant asians i had a year ago used to tackle house and even bb's at their size w/o hesitation. Anyone know whats going on?
