Just wanted to share some good news that I'm really stoked about! I've had my Ghost Mantis, Reaper Man, for a week as of today. He quit eating yesterday, so I decided to give his enclosure a little extra mist just in case, but I really thought there was no way he was going to molt for me already.

I was wrong! Woke up this morning to a fresh molt and a much bigger Reaper Man! I'm pretty sure he was in his third instar when I got him, so now he's a big L4 boy! I'm so happy that he molted okay, and I'm sure he'll be super happy when I can feed him again tomorrow evening.
