Time between molts

[rwilson5]

Out of curiosity what is the longest anyone's mantis has gone between molts? My giant asian isn't yet an adult but it's been about a month and 3 days between now and her last molt. I was wondering if that seemed odd or if this isn't that rare of a case.

Not really. The last molt takes longer it seems. A month is not unusual in my experience especially with an older nymph.

It depends some on how much you feed them and how warm you keep them. If kept cooler and with less food it will take a lot longer for them to molt.
