It seemed to go perfectly, and she risked her life by hooking only THREE legs onto the fabric I put in there. One thing I don't get is that if a Mantid lost it's antenna, it would regrow it by a molt, she didn't, as it only grew about half a millimeter every time. But, one of her antenna looks all curved in a cane shape, like an Idolo's antenna which I think is pretty cool. Right now she's drying her wings, and letting a leg hang in the air. I think it's normal for them to only hang with three or so legs, but I don't know why she did it when molting.

I'll put pics up later as my iPad is dead and my cameras fail at photos.
