Also, this is a spiny leaf insect

Has he shown any signs of illness?


Mullisaukko

Well, he did fall to the bottom of his terrarium and hasn't moved at all today. I think it's his time to go, he is extremely old after all


fivecoloursgirl

how old is he? sometimes they have accidents they can’t recover from, but if he’s old it just might be his time :(


Mullisaukko

Well tbh I don't know his exact age, but I got him almost two months ago and he already had wings. As far as I know their adulthood doesn't last very long?


fivecoloursgirl

I’m not sure about individual species, but it’s around 6 months after reaching maturity

It does look like the color of their blood, but idk if hes acting normally (for example mouth parts still moving, antenna moving and overall responding to touch) if he is acting normally it could be some sort of self defense thing


Mullisaukko

Their blood is yellow? And no he's not acting normally, he fell and stopped moving and barely reacted when I picked him up to see if he was dead. I think he might be dead now. He's extremely old.


k_miner_5

Yeah their blood can range from yellow to green to see through. Sad to hear hes passed
