I'm guessing it happened some time between yesterday morning and tonight. I fed her about 4 days ago because she came out of her burrow looking for food. Then yesterday at around 730am I checked on her and topped her water dish off. She looked normal from what I could see. Had no idea she was in pre molt. Then tonight before bed I checked on her. As I looked into her burrow I saw a whole mess of legs. She's already right side up and looking healthy. I'd like to get the molt so I can sex it but I'd have to move the cork bark and I'm worried about disturbing her. Should I just leave it there until she is fully hardened? She looks like she made it through the molt just fine.</p></blockquote><p></p>
