I check all my T's 2x a day morning and night just to make sure they have plenty of fresh water and no one is showing signs of stress or illness.

Anyway I checked everyone last night like always and they were all doing great. When I went for my rounds this morning this is what I found instead of my ornery G. Porteri climbing out on my hand to say her "good morning"

Does anyone have any idea what could have happened? Water was still full and she still hadn't ate the roach I gave her yesterday. Looks like she was starting to molt. Any ideas would b greatly appreciated.

Oh, how sad!! I'm so sorry. Sometimes we never know. It does look like her carapace is cracked. Could she have fallen??
My condolences Pearl.
