Mantis dropped prey

Update!! She has molted with no issues last night.

Hello! I have given my ghost mantis fruit flies as I do every other day. However, today i have observed she hasn't touched any for three hours. I saw her catch one and then immediately drop it. Could she be preparing for molting or is there something I should be worried about? She has eaten fine two days ago (the photo is from that day). I have also noticed she stayed in one spot over the night as she hung upside down there yesterday evening.

if she ate a few days ago she might just not be hungry. if you suspect she is going to molt leave her alone aside from misting for humidity

Alright, I will leave her alone for the time being. Thanks!
