Yoda is throwing up (I think)

[Mantis Lady]

If I need to slow crickets down, I do it during the working day. Then hubby isn't at home.  Then he won't find insects in the fridge. He already think I am keeping  "pests".

I have put my fruitflies culture in de fridge to slow them down  and gave Yoda some fruitflies. Maybe he can keep those inside. I am keeping an eye on him to see if he eats them.

 

[Mantis Lady]

Yoda update: I have put a few fruitflies in his cup  and he ate them. (I don't see them anymore) I hope he will keep that inside and not throwing it out again. I will give him a bit of honey water before sleeping.

He is alert and wanted to explore today... he did even a big jump. I keep my fingers crossed for him.

 

[Mantis Lady]

I hope he keeps his flies inside and gets better. (he hasn't vomited yet.) He is a cute little guy.

Yay Yoda! I hope he does get better, and that he doesn't throw up those fruit flies. Good job with him!

I don't see vomit spots. That is a good sign. I will see how he is doing today with a few new flies.

 

[Predatorhousepet]

Great! Hopefully he will be able to keep it down this time.

 

[Mantis Lady]

Great! Hopefully he will be able to keep it down this time. 

Should i still give him honey water? or will flies be enough and normal misting be ok? 

 

[Predatorhousepet]

If he is acting normal and eating without throwing up then you can stop the honey water for now and just use it as an occasional treat or if he needs a little boost. Go ahead and resume regular misting and feeding flies and see how he does.

I hope he is well enough to keep his flies down now!

Hope Yoda is all better soon. 

 

[Mantis Lady]

He didn't throw up again, he keeps his food in his belly and that is ok. I love when mantids eats good.?

 

[MantisGirl13]

I hope he is better for good this time! Good job taking care of him!

Hope the flies suit him better and that he is well very soon.

he got grasshopper abdomen this morning and he likes it. I am thinking not giving him crickets anymore.

 

[MantisGirl13]

Yeah, that might be a good idea. Keep feeding him grasshoppers and see how he likes it!
