TW EYE INJURY INSECTS BUGS GORO!!!!!!!!! WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOURSELF!! 😠😠😠😠 I thought it might have been a piece of poo that got stuck while molting somehow, but now that he's hardened and I can look closer, nope! It's a full on puncture!! Idk what happened, since he shed overnight. I helped him wipe it with wet paper towel and he cleared off the scab, but is otherwise still in good spirits, I think, so hopefully it doesn't affect anything more than vision. 😢😢😢😢 I put him in the sunnier window while he was drying and he's super red under his neck which is cool. And the light sage green on part of his wings is really pretty. Maybe he'll fan them out for me some day. 🦋🦋🦋🦋 Still no sign of shedding from Motaro yet, but I'm not gonna hold my breath, he's still moving around, and may not be ready yet, but I can expect him to shed within the next few days at the most. #mantis #mantises #mantids #prayingmantis #preyingmantis #chinesemantis #tenoderasinensis #tenodera #mantidsofinstagram #L9 #adultmantis #insect #insects #insectkeeping #insectpets #bug #bugs #bugkeeping #pet #pets #petstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CSnCOO7hyhJ/?utm_medium=tumblr

TW INSECTS BUGS OH MY GOD LOOK AT MY BEAUTIFUL BABBY GORO HE FINALLY GOT HIS WINGS LOOK HOW GORGEOUS THEY ARE!!!! 😍😍😍😍 I'M SO HAPPY FOR HIM!!!! MAKING IT ALL THE WAY TO L9 AND BEING SUCH A FIGHTER ALL THE WHILE!!!! I knew they were due to shed, so I gave them both a juicey waxworm the day before yesterday. Hopefully Goro will start to accept the mealworms/hand-fed more readily, since he's been so picky with anything I try to give him for all of the last shed. He had some kind of issue with his chitin at the abdomen-thorax joint all last shed, so I'm hoping that as long as he dries undisturbed, that the problem will be fixed. He looks sooo good though!!!! All crisp and white right now! Can't wait to see what colours come out when he dries!! Motaro will also be due to shed soon, too, now. 🦗🦗🦗🦗 #mantis #mantises #mantids #prayingmantis #preyingmantis #chinesemantis #tenoderasinensis #tenodera #mantidsofinstagram #L9 #adultmantis #insect #insects #insectkeeping #insectpets #bug #bugs #bugkeeping #bugpets #pet #pets #petstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CSmkFwMlT18/?utm_medium=tumblr
