I went to check this morning and change out the food, and he had moved closer to the water dishes in the tank. I noticed that he had something funny on his body and I picked him up to look and it was mold and he smelled really bad. I'm really upset by all of this because I thought he was going to pull through, but I know sometimes they don't especially during a molt.
Thanks for all of your support.
So sorry for you hermie loss
