[QUOTE="Predatorhousepet, post: 314754, member: 10650"] I agree, he looks like an adult male. You said he mis-molted...was that his last molt and what happened? A male's abdomen (the back part sticking out of the wings on yours) is long and thin, when it starts to look flattened that means he needs to eat. Don't worry if he goes a few days without eating, male adults sometimes don't eat much. Since he is an adult and won't molt again you can cut down misting to two or three times a week. Maintaining high humidity is less important now, misting is mainly so he can drink water. [/QUOTE]
