[QUOTE="Predatorhousepet, post: 317442, member: 10650"] Nope, its still there and has completely dried up into a hard chunk. She doesn't seem to notice it's even there...probably why she hasn't tried to remove it herself. I did try applying more warm water with a Q-tip to see if I could get it to soften up enough to come off but it didn't budge, it is [U]on there[/U]. I was worried it might interfere with mating but the male was able to maneuver around it after feeling around a while. It did seem to throw him off a bit when he first felt it with his abdomen, he paused a few seconds like it was something he wasn't expecting to be there...then he just continued on trying to locate her opening. He was able to make a connection that lasted about 28 hours. After they were separated I got him out to put him back in his cage and he thought it was a grand time to take flight & hang out on the ceiling. I had to stand on a chair to get him down. Maybe he got some dust on him from the ceiling and that is why he spent such a long time cleaning himself. [/QUOTE]
