Mishell came up!!

Apparently, she was disturbed by me changing the crabitat around right over her head.....
But up she came, in her dusky purple goodness! As sad as I am to have disturbed her, I'm so relieved to see her up and about. I was very worried...She's been down for a loooooong time, and I had feared the worst.
Of course, Valhalla (an E) had to check her out immediately. "HEY! Who are you? Do you live here, too? I've never seen you before, are you sure you live here? Hey, is that a shell you're wearing? That sure is nice. Hmmm...I'd sure like a shell like that. Hey, gimme that shell! I said I like that SHELLLLLL! Mine! MINE!!"
Oy vey. Out for maybe 5 minutes, and she's already been evicted from her shell, the poor thing. She's in a land snail shell right now, and it's a little big for her, but it isn't bad for an emergency clothing change. It's a nice lightweight one too, so she's having an easy time getting around in her weakened post-molt state.
She's been gingerly exploring, eating honey, and munching on what's left of her exo. She's made her way over to the fresh water bowl, but having a hard time getting over the edge. I'll put in a shallower dish for her if she keeps having troubles
I'll post a pic as soon as I can. She looks so pretty in her new dusky pinky/purple Exo.
