First molter, need info
Re: First molter, need info
I'm loving this tread. I'm new to hermies (about five months now)and new to this forum. Just registered this am. Not sure if is hold start a new thread or not. My questions do concern my first experience with molting... I have a pp that had been down for at least a month. In that time I was able to set up a new crabitat with more substrate, bigger, more water etc. the crab just resurfaced for the first time last night. So this morning I moved CrabbiePattie to the new environment. Immediately found a dark area and went back down. Did I move her/him too soon? I didn't think about the stress, I just wanted to relocate to the more suitable tank as I now have another hermie down in the original tank. Looks like I'm keeping it as an isolation tank. Just looking for guidance on not stressing these guys out more.
