Posted - 25/11/2011 : 14:20:54 Last night I caught Sylar going into her moss (it's a tub with a hole to get in / out)
She has not came out yet, she is still in there. Is this normal behaviour? Is a shed going to happen soon? |

Posted - 25/11/2011 : 16:19:26 Yeah its all i did. You dont even need to handle. Somedays i just uncovered her from her hide to check she was ok. |

Posted - 25/11/2011 : 15:33:02 Best not to distrub them too much. I try to check on mine every other day (if i havent seen her moving about). They can get a little stressed about it as they vision is impared and they feel vulnerable.
Mine shed last night and i've handled her twice in a week and a half just to check everything was ok. |

Posted - 25/11/2011 : 14:41:43 Another quick question, when Sylar starts to shed, is it okay to handle her during the process or not? |

Posted - 25/11/2011 : 14:38:48 Well it's removed now and I will put it back when I see some signs of shedding, thanks |

Posted - 25/11/2011 : 14:30:23 Should only put it in if she's had problems shedding before. SO see how this one goes. If she is looking a little duller and hiding alot then she will be getting ready to shed. Can take anywhere from a week to 3 weeks for the whole process (mine takes week and a half to two weeks). |

Posted - 25/11/2011 : 14:27:20 I've took it out now and I'll put it back in when I notice she is starting to shed |

Posted - 25/11/2011 : 14:24:39 It's been in since a few days ago, I have no idea when she's meant to shed so I put it in incase she was going to shed |
