Mismolted Majucula!! :(

[hierodula]

Over the past three molts, shes been molting worse and worse. First it was a gimpy arm, then twisted legs, and in her final moult, she fell, even though i secured her legs to the ceiling and superglued some foam stuff to the sides. do you think shell live? Or should i put her out of her misery? This also leaves me with 2 adult male majusculas, one 2 months old and the other one and a half months old. Both unmated.

She doesn't look good. She could probably live, but would need constant care. Give her a day or 2 to see what she can manage and go from there.

 

[hierodula]

all right, she can't even stand, so im really worried. Im pretty sure she can never mate, so ill most likely sell my males or work out an ooth deal....

 

[aNisip]

She won't be able to lay an ooth, it doesn't look good bud, sorry

i was able to save my this morning .. saw her on the ground at 3:00am lucky i woke up to pee took a quick look ... i was able to pick her up let her grip back to the screen .. only part i couldn't save was her front arm .

Ya this species is too big and heavy.... with out proper support Female have High chance mismolt .. lucky i have 4 ATM that's in good shape .. so breeding shouldn't be a problem . with 12 Males ready to die lol ..

my female when molting to adult gripped onto the ground too early and now she has a hard time hanging upside down.

Update: though shes having trouble moving, she is really hungry. She is a real trooper, and i think shell make it, even though shes crippled. Hooray!!!!!!!
