Molt?

Well, I have had a medium straw for about 4 months now, and she has never molted for me. And today, I heard scratching, walked over, looked under, and she has left me a little window to peek at her. But Im not to sure if she's molting or not. But I thought since she never has, and has been eating a lot lately, maybe it's finally time?? If so, Wish my baby luck!! I've nevver ever had a straw molt, and if my first one went bad, I would die!!

Well I would not get to excited about your window to watch with. I have had several who have left my windows but because of the lights and the movement they take away your window. That has been my experience anyways. Keep us posted.

mine do that too. as much as you want to see them, you probly won't watch them molt unless you get a surface molter. definitely let us know what happens. a first molt is very exciting!

Oh, only like 2 days. But I still think shes going to be molting this time. She doesn't usually dig, shes a climber.

Usually if they are down for more than 3 or 4 days then they are molting.

yeah that's how i do it. although apollo shouldn't be under he's a jumbo and he molted in october for the first time. i dunno why he's buried. not sure why lemi's buried either...or aries. i guess they could be molting but they've molted since the beginning of the year already. so i'm just a little confused.

Thats funny you say that about your jumbo. Mine molted last year and he was down molting again. He came up yesterday but he has gone back down. I know he was molting this time and I know he did last time he had the black tips last time which he didn't have before. This time I saw the EXO was off of him so I know this is a molt too. Who knows, not us, THEM!
