[QUOTE="Salatia, post: 218374, member: 38837"] My curly hair has had me convinced it was dead twice now. The first time it moulted in such a way that the moult was left mouth agape at the bottom of the burrow - where I could see. It was only by chance I shone the light just right and saw a butt blocking the route upwards. More recently, that window into the burrow disappeared, and there was no sign of anything around the burrow entrances. Several others molted - still nothing. Little sod was sat by the bowl earlier like no time at all had passed. I'm wondering if the way my feed timings have worked maybe they're not having 'enough' time hungry. They've never looked 'big' in the way some of my slings have - and some of those guys will sit in their spot for food without fail. But I do tend to feed them when they're out because I think I've seen them all of three times since getting them in May. I might try not doing so when I next see them out and about and do so on the next round, just to see. [/QUOTE]
