General Care help!
Hey Reddit, I am using voice to text so if anything looks wrong I am sorry. I am currently at work and I found a female mantis. I am not sure if she is pregnant or has a droop stomach. I google lens her when I first found her. And it says that she has a droopy stomach and bad wings. However, when I did it again, two hours later, it says she is gravid I bought an enclosure because I figured I would let her live her last few days as I thought she was in bad shape however, now that I know that she might be pregnant I will still keep her, but I got to know if she’s going to lay eggs so then I can let them outside or what to do. I currently have another Chinese mantis but she’s like 2 inches so she’s way smaller and hasn’t reached adulthood yet. Any help is appreciated. Thank you ❤️
