[QUOTE="octanejunkie, post: 170010, member: 3872"] P. irminia has been MIA for around 10 days, no sign of movement from within her dirt curtain when I move the deli cup enclosure. In the past, I have seen movement in there. It was suggested to me to "check" on the T - I see no way of doing that without upsetting her dirt curtain hide... If she has already molted, then this is maybe a good rehousing opportunity, but I will need to damage if not destroy her dirt curtain hide to "check on her" - and if she is holed up in premolt and I wreck her hide, then what? How do I not make things worse in the spirit of making sure everything is okay? Should I just wait some more? [/QUOTE]
