[QUOTE="CosbyArt, post: 306351, member: 8168"] In which cases for her age your best option is to ask the seller you got her from, as anything else would be a pure guess including how many ooths she has left to lay (or if she was mated or is infertile). If you had her for more than a week and she has not laid a ooth than you can assume she is 7-8 months old. But if you have kept her for less time, you can only be sure she is at least that old and likely older. The water in her wings should still evaporate, and mantids do clean themselves too. There is no real way to dry out the water between the wings other than holding her, carefully extending the wings, and then drying the wings by allowing a paper towel to wick up the water (do not wipe on the wings); however, that will take at least three hands to do carefully.
