First time he flip on his back and pushed the old exo off of himself, the 2nd time he moulted standing up, pushed himself out the top then flipped on his back and rested for over an hour before turning back on all eights. Definitely  something to see before you die, totally facinating. The pre - moults are also different each time. First time he stopped eating for about six weeks before moulting, 2nd time he didn't eat for 10 months!! But have been told this is not unusual far a Rosie.</p></blockquote><p></p>
