Oh No!!!!

I recently purchased a beautiful mantis. It is a species from tanzania and looks very much like a greenish twig. I have had it for half a week and it descided to shed. I was completely unprepared for its shed... it was active and eating last night and then this.

The problem is, i had yet to give it a proper home. I feel so horrible about this. It shed in a yogurt container. It shed completely but somethings wrong. It doesnt move right, it seems limpish, and its thorax may be a little bent. I think it dried in a very awkward position.

Is there anything i can do? I think i really blew it
