Hello guys. I have a pair of O. monilis. The boy is a very big one, healthly as they come. But the girl isn't.
She has an issue in her back, like she had a hump. I don't know if she was born with it or not, but the previous owner told me she had breed with it. The thing is, she is kind of clumsy, and I never see her eating. I'm worried about her and I'd like to know if she looks skinny to you. If she does, what can I do to help her?

she looks thin, maybe pinch the back legs off your crickets so she can catch them easier. gutload the crickets with some nutritious food, and pray for the best. I see what you are saying with that back malformity. She may eat that baby food you are feeding her but it doesn't appear so. Maybe she will eat some wax worms, mine never did, but it is worth a try. I'd keep the enclosure a little more sanitary to avoid any bacterial issues too. I can't think of anything else to tell you, hopefully someone else has some suggestions too.

Yes, she looks a bit skinny.
Most animals found in the wild will probably look somewhat similar, but I prefer my captives to have a bit more fat...
