My L4 giant dead leaf mantis has a plump abdomen and it isn't getting smaller. I thought it must have been premolt but he is still interested in food and doesn't seen to be molting. He hadn't eaten for around 5 days yesterday and I gave him a locust today so he doesn't starve but his abdomen is still so big and I have to take the locust off him so he doesn't eat too much. What do I do?

I currently have a giant dead leaf mantis and he is l4 as of right now. I have constant tenperatures and always keep up humidity but he/she doesn't seem to want to molt. Still eating regularly and its been about just over 10 weeks since the last molt and I don't know what to do, isn't it only supposed to be like 4 weeks inbetween? Please helpppp
