Hi. I ordered a harlequin flower beetle from bugs in cyber space. I've had her for about a month now. My tank is humid though she tends to remain orange and black at all times. I also have provided a heating pad which should help with humidity. However, just a couple of days ago, I noticed some of her markings on the side of her, which are spots, are now shrinking in size. I've also found a few new markings that look like a "scratch" but are indeed a new marking. I know they will change color when more humid, but that's usually the orange. Her spots are literally shrinking. She also doesn't fly as much as she used to and is a lot more clumsy to. She still eats just fine. She prefers banana but I also provide jelly cups and some times other fruits like cucumber and melon. She also lives with a rice beetle (dyscinetus morator)
Is this normal? I'm just a little worried. Just last week she was flying around like a carpenter bee, now she's completely different, like shes been replaced.
Thanks for any help!
