DD found crabclaw exo parts so either Bearnie or Oona did a molt while their were down. Probably Oona as she was down longer.
And ... trumpets, please ... Baba has risen! :crabbigsmile:

So now all are up and about. Time to re-decorate! Time to get knitting the climbing net for the little boogers. Sift for poo, add 1/2 fiber block and get it up to 6" deep, and mix substrate, add a dome home, remove the mini-milk crate, new toys, hang onion bag mesh for climbing, etc. etc.
Learning lots so 3 PPs can live happily ;) Dukkie (pronc dəkē)

Hi, sorry I'm just seeing this now... wanted to just interject that I put up a bit of onion bag once (thought I could hang a hygrometer in it) & one of my crabs, Luis, appeared to actually be eating it. She was tearing at it & her mouth parts were moving (though I cant be 100% that she was ingesting the plastic)... I was quite put out. I generally believe these guys won't eat stuff that isn't good for 'em, but some individuals are special, and maybe the plastic smells like food, I dunno.

Just wanted to recommend you keep an eye on the onion netting & maybe remove it if you see similar behaviour. :roll:

Quince the fat tailed gecko; Amazonian minnows; and now Harry & Luis, Bede & Aster, Chandra & Jace, Pax, & Piccolo, my adopted PPs.
RIP Vegita :(

Thank you for the tip! I will keep a closer eye on it. Actually I mentioned it DD and since they are her babies she decided better to be safe. She decided to remove it. Thank you for letting us know. ;)
