Hi all. First time poster. Pretty desperate for answers.
I've had a young giant asian mantis for about four months now. As I've learned, she's an extremely picky eater. It has now been two week since she has last eaten. in that time she molted but still hasn't eaten. There has been two spotted roaches and a cricket in the enclosure the entire two weeks and she is showing 0 interest in eating them. Her abdomen is almost flat. She readily eats moths but it's winter and they're no longer around. I'm worried that she will starve to death with prey no more than four inches away. What do I do?
