Wings not developing

Third Instar
So most of my Shield-spots aren't developing their wings well when they molt. I have vertical spaces for them, and I think the humidity is ok. What's going on?

Well unfortunately no one's replying...

OK well I think it might actually be the humidity. On Roach Crossing it says that humidity doesn't matter, but maybe he just means that they can SURVIVE at any humidity...

 
If wings don't expand fully it usually is low humidity causing it or they fall after molting and it affects the wings.

 
hmm yeah they might be falling. It's just hard to watch them all the time to know for sure...

idk like I'm trying to use screen on the sides of the tank instead of cork bark, but maybe it's not working as well. Maybe I just gotta shell out the money for cork bark :P
