[QUOTE="Thistles, post: 123536, member: 3949"] Hey Enn, sorry to see that. I just noticed the thread. If you can keep Peanut alive until the next molt, hopefully things will sort themselves out. Eating is a good sign, but with a mouth like that you might have to make soup. I had an LV sling that had the fangs stick, but I found it shortly after the molt and was able to gently remove them. The little beastie ended up looking like a vampire because the new fangs were pulled down instead of folding back, but with some home-made soup he pulled through. Just keep an eye on body condition and hope for the best. They usually molt faster if they're injured. Their bodies know something isn't right and try to correct, I think. The bigger hitch I see is that that looks like a MM to me. See if you can see emboli. [/QUOTE]
