[QUOTE="The Wolven, post: 346672, member: 12740"] I attempted to splint a mantis that had a very warped neck and it really didn’t work out. I used half a toothpick (edges were safe and away from the head) and carefully tied a piece of fabric to it. It freaked Thyme out a lot and she kept trying to eat the fabric. Any kind of splint is going to distress your mantis. They will find some kind of way to get it off even if they were entirely immobile like mine was. There’s a good chance the mantis would hurt itself you know? [/QUOTE]
