Message: <blockquote data-quote="NatashaG" data-source="post: 83891" data-attributes="member: 5331">I was planning on doing my weekly cleaning of Zoltans' enclosure today (He has managed to do a poop right at the back of his hide and it's not the nicest looking thing in the world) when my partner shouted me through to say that he was upside down!! Now after a quick freak out of hoping he wasn't dead <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite6" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":cool:" />, I'm glad to say that he is most definitely moulting <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Unfortunately he is right in his hide and had burrowed down a little, so it is impossible to get a good photo or film him, but he must have just started as I had done my check of him in the morning and he was happily sitting at the front of his house.He has been placed on a higher shelf than his usual one, just because I have my family visiting and I want him well out of the way, and have the place darkened quiet a bit. A quick question, will the poop be okay to leave in there while he is moutling? Will post any updates when I can!! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /><img src="http://www.tarantulaforum.com/images/tarantulasmiley.jpg"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":T:" title="Tarantula Smiley    :T:" data-shortname=":T:" /></blockquote>
