[QUOTE="Krissim Klaw, post: 290604, member: 1492"] Even if they have short legs mantises can have major problems moving if they get out of place directly after a molt. Their legs just don't work right so it can be hard for them to crawl back into a proper spot if they loose their grip and end up on the ground. As long as you managed to get her up in a decent position before her legs full sent, they should strengthen back up. I wouldn't be too worried about the slightly askew abdomen, but it might be prudent to try and keep her on the lighter side of healthy for a gravid female depending on how it dangles. [/QUOTE]
