Awoke to a freshly shed Medusa this morning, didn't realise she had been in blue as she has been eating fine and hasn't been moody or anything! for a change  Got the shed out and had a look, the tail end had broken off and it was missing the tip of the tail and about half a cm up. Got Medusa out and got some damp kitchen roll and let her go through it in my hands and it came off straight away! Had a minor panic attack thinking 'oh God what if it doesn't come off!?' but it did luckily. I will post some photos of her soon as I haven't for a while. She's got so big  Showing some really nice red and orange colours!  |

| Great, hope when Colin first sheds with me there are no issues. Apparently, he has never had any problems so fingers crossed :) |

| I'm sure Colin will be ok! Medusa's have all been fine and in one piece up untill now! But she's getting a big girl now so I had expected problems to come along sooner or later, just glad I had spent time before I got her reading about shedding issues and other problems! If it wasn't for this forum I probably would've been a panicking wreck when I first got her! |
