[QUOTE="msteacher, post: 326569, member: 11012"] Hey all, I think that my cultures of fruit flies went bad or something 'cause I've got a couple of sick baby ghost mantids. There are 5 and they are living together, still really small my guess is L3ish. I've noticed brown stuff on the glass, almost as if they are throwing up and they seem pretty listless. I've separated them into individual pint-sized mason jars and put some fruit flies in there but one is having a really hard time walking/staying on top. I have to hold the jar at a very slight angle, practically horizontal, or else it falls. My question: Can I give them some mashed up banana or something to help them get the energy to fight whatever it is that is wrong with them? Any other advice would be greatly appreciated as well!
