Mantis seems sluggish and droopy.

My mantis (female, Hierodula venosa ) has been moving really slow and her legs seem weak. anybody know whats wrong? she does not move fast enough to catch food. this only started about 2 days ago.

She might be nearing the end of her life

thats what im thinking shes 10 months old.

Typical signs and with the age stated... She will likely continue to slow.

Same thing happened to all of my past mantids when they got toward the 1 year mark.
