[QUOTE="Kymura, post: 84762, member: 4072"] Try to zoom in with your camera and see what color the fangs are. After molting they are stark white usually darkening to red then black. As long as the T is not on its back it should be fine. Keep a close eye on what's going on. If the burrow is open its either already molted or not quite ready. Personally I'd remove the hide and get the cricket. If it has molted, feeding to early could damage their fangs. If it hasn't then you don't need that cricket chewing on your sling while it tries to molt. I would remove the cricket and then put the hide back where it was. Don't forget to keep the water dish full. If it's molted it will want a nice drink. [/QUOTE]
