I have a young (not sure of the instar) that shed about 2 weeks ago he used to be a green colour but now hes went brown and im just wondering if theres anything wrong or if hes just developing camouflage because hes spent most of his time hanging from a black ash branch i have in the tank (its actually brown its just called the black ash) ide post pictures but my cams not working any help much appreciated.

BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE....EEEE

That's normal. Many mantids often change their color after a molt. He may change again too. But whatever color he is after his final molt is the color he will remain.
