[QUOTE="sk8erkho, post: 41057, member: 738"] Wow!! You're either lucky or really good with your babies!! I have had a few close calls and with tweezer and magnifying glass successfully rescued a tangled Chines nymph or two. But I read threads and hear of the various mismolt situations and wonder if that person had decided to step in at that particular time and carefully and patiently eased the skin off or whatever would they have had the same outcome as I did those two times. I Had one where by the time I even got to it it was already tangled and beginning to hardened in that "c" shape I've heard about. After that I decided to see if i could keep up with molt dates and times just in case. Don't get me wrong, nature has it covered. But, once in a while the worst could begin to occur and as you said, they fall under pet category for a lot of us. So, i was wondering how many others out there would do what they could??!! [/QUOTE]
