Message: <blockquote data-quote="kormath" data-source="post: 66424" data-attributes="member: 4199">I have a few in premolt now.  The genic refused food today and has a shiney black abdomen so he should be molting soon.  The smaller B. albo is looking ready to molt any day now.  Dark patch and he's snuggled up against the side of the enclosure in his burrow, not quite upside down, so he could just be being weird.  B. boehmei hasn't eaten for 2 weeks now and has a mottled dark patch on his abdomen.  And i'm guessing the 4 boxes of pet dirt are all in premolt or molting.The avic hasn't eaten in about 2 weeks, and looks really fat so i'm hoping she's in premolt.  There are 2 pinheads in her enclosure i can't remove without destroying it so she has food if she decides to eat <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
