beautiful.. maybe its because I haven't raised that many mantids, but it's really so satisfying when a nymph matures :) But really really hope the wings turned out okay and there wasn't any damage sustained to the abdomen. IMHO insects are really, REALLY fragile during the whole moulting process (and hours afterward), even if they fell or mismoulted I wouldn't touch them for at least 12hours
