[QUOTE="Therasoid, post: 39816, member: 3538"] Don't freak out, this is normal and will happen numerous times in their life cycle. Definately remove the prey items. As far as the time it takes to finish the molting process, this varies with the individual. Some take a couple hours others a lot longer. I've raised from slings to mature adults, and most have finished less than 8 hours. 1 did take closer to 12 hours with no problems. I usually wait 7-10 days before I introduce food. This is ample time for them to fully harden. Congratulations on witnessing the molting process, I've seen just the tail end or find the freshly molted T all stretched out. [emoji4] [/QUOTE]
