I smell iodine...

Post by wickedannabella » Wed Feb 06, 2008 10:19 pm

One of my larges is going to molt. Don't know which one, perhaps Merlot...she's been digging a lot....but when I went to put some fresh water and food in, I noticed a STRONG Iodine smell. So I put in a dish of cuttlebone & honey mix...

I really hope I don't get a surface molt....

Hmmmm.....I'd keep a close eye on her, Wickie. :? I don't usually smell Iodine until the molt is actually occurring.

Upon further investigation, I see Tarzan down in the corner ... Looks like he might have just molted too.

Molts give me gray hair!!!!
