[QUOTE="ladyarcana55, post: 314348, member: 10706"] When I woke up this morning, she had molted! I'm kind of freaking out because she was really low on her branch when it happened so she's a bit bent. There is a bend in her thorax and in some of her wings and I just realized one of her legs is bent and she can't use it. Will she be okay? Is there something I can do or is it too late? I didn't realize she was about to molt because she ate yesterday morning. Her abdomen looked plump, but I thought it was because she had eaten. She was really active yesterday. When I woke up she was caught in the crook of the branch that's in there. It looked like she was struggling to get out so I took her out to free her from the branch and I put her back in her enclosure. I put her on the cover to give her more room. Now she isn't moving, I am assuming to give herself more time to dry. Every so often she wiggles her abdomen and I am not sure why. Is this okay or did I really mess up? Is there anything I can do? Thanks again everyone! [/QUOTE]
