I'm curious what everyone's experience is with molts.
We just returned from a 10 day vacation and returned to a seemingly normal pet. Last night I took a look at our O. Scyllarus after hearing some hammering going on. She was holding one of her clubs and then tossed it out at me?!? I thought she was stressing and had pulled her clubs off as I had read of here on the forum. After a closer look I could see that she was "all-there" and she did seem much bigger than I thought she was.
Apparently she molted some time while we were away but the one club was the only discarded shell I saw. Also today, that piece had disappeared also.
Do mantises consume their molts?
T.I.A...
