Don't you dare give up because you had one bad experience with one T. I went through a run of 5 sling deaths after a molt. It happens, it sucks. Sometimes it's natures way. Be sad for a little bit, it's OK. But don't you dare beat yourself up or give up. Got it?  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Did it take the water? If there was something wrong with this T it wouldn't have mattered what you did. If it makes you feel better, and it may, we can go over your husbandry, step-by-step if you'd like. Also, if you still have the molt get some pics, let's see if you guessed right. Use this as a learning experience, then if you loose the T at least it was educational for you.Yes, depending on how far gone s/he is it can take closer to months to come around.</blockquote>
