My Chinese fell during his last moult. I thought the photos were cool. He had a difficult recovery but he's very well now. :)

Glad nothing bad happened. One of my Nigerians moulted today. It's missing more of it's leg now, ony very slightly larger.

 
LOL right after i posted my friend called and said his dad caught a mantis!!! It was a male and i just picked him up from his house!!! Now the trick is mating. :roll: I'm a noob at mating mantids i only have mated 1 pair of chinese :roll:

 
How did his wings turn out?
Wings went badly. They expanded and dried, but poorly. I read that it could be a humidity thing. They impeded his movement so I snipped them, with his consent :wink: . He looks like a train wreck but eats well and travels all over a big terrarium. I'm disappointed for him, but I guess that's silly.
