URGENT: Rhombodera fell during molt

[Bathory]

I'm not sure if she picked a ****** place to molt or if she just fell, but I found her half stuck in her old exuvia behind a branch. Pulled her out because she was head down on the ground, and the exuvia came off. Now she's really lethargic and I don't know if there's anything I can do to help her dry out correctly, what do I do?

A picture would help. Are her legs and neck completely messed up?

Picture coming in a minute. Legs and neck are fine, neck is a tad bent but not much.

Then luckily she will most likely be fine. She’s just lethargic because of the molt. The problems occur when the legs or neck get bent during a molt.

I'll try and see if I can't get her to turn so her head is up for the wings to dry.

Oh shoot. Didn’t know this was her final molt... try to put her on toop of the enclosure upside down ASAP

Actually, it looks like she's getting there herself! I turned her around so her head was facing up and she just started climbing. I'm keeping an eye on her so she doesn't fall AGAIN but I'd rather not mess with her too much at this point.

Well good luck!
