Moose is back up after a 3 month molt!

Post by CrabbyMom33 » Tue Mar 13, 2012 7:17 pm

Moose is my biggest one and I always worry when she molts because the bigger ones are down so long. Her first molt with me a year ago was just under 2 months, then this summer she was only down a month. She dug down this time on 12/17 and just came up on 3/11 so I was starting to get worried. She looks fine and even a bit bigger. I think she's in need of a bath! I bet she'll trash a water dish in the next few days.

Here she is chowing down on mineral supplements.

Yay for Moose! It's hard for them to be gone so long!

Very awesome! :) Glad to hear he made it through another molt! I'm always on pins and needles when my big guys go down, too.
