Hey all, maybe someone with a bit of experience can help me out here...

I found my inch long N' incei dead today, I noticed it was moving weird about a week ago, I put pictures up and a video and tbh people didn't see much if anything wrong, thought I was being paranoid but I new something was off, anyway I tried giving it a bit extra moisture with fresh water and just left it be, but sadly today I confirmed it dead.

I'll add a picture, you can see the skin on the abdomen has come off a bit and it was leaking a fluid, also I'll add the carapace was hanging off too, so I'm wondering did it die molting?

Any thoughts? by the way before I noticed anything wrong it was eating like a champ and the week before I noticed anything it refused food so I assumed at the time it was premolt, but anyway and opinions appreciated.
