I received a grade L2 nymphs Pseudovates arizonae, unfortunately, one of the four nymphs may not move the grippers. Although it looks good so far likely to die of hunger. I tried giving her fruit flies killed at the end of entomological pins but despite the fact that mandibles can not move their "bite." What can you provide an alternative to eating (and whether or not there is a chance to save this "little one")?.

 
This might be a long shot, but you could buy some canned cat food, dip it on the end of tooth picks to hand feed it that way
