my N. chromatus is weird.

when he wasn't in pre molt. he always hangs inside of his hide. but now when he's in definite pre molt. he doesn't seem to like going in/chilling on top of his hide. even during the day. what kind of sorcery is this? haha. maybe the hide is too small for him to molt inside.

Its possible its to small for him to molt all though T's generally like to molt in confine spaces because it make them feel safe as to molting out in the open were a predator might walk by and then they would be screwed. In the end some Ts are just hipsters they think acting like everyone else is to mainstream. That's why you will hear about docile T's that are consider defensive and vice verse. So you might just have an odd ball

i guess. if he wanted to molt inside he could just dig deeper for moar space.

Both my chromatus are nuts. They kill there water bowls and hide underneath them. Sometimes they just pace round and round. Might get them hamster wheels when they are bigger lol.
