:wall::wall::wall:
I just disturbed my versi while she was molting :wall: I didn't do it purposely, I was unaware she was molting until I removed the lid. Ever since I rehoused her in that jar, she has always webbed the top-to-lid. The one time I'm doing my daily rounds of maintenance is the one time where I encounter a molting accident. The web that was attached to the lid twisted, luckily she wasn't fully in it, but it disturbed her non-the-less and now she doesn't have 1 of her front legs that resides near the fangs -pedipalps (?)- (I need to familiarize myself with T anatomy). I saw the limb still twitching in the molt with "T blood" at the end of it. Nothing is leaking from her though.
I placed her in a small container with moist paper towels and a small water dish (top of a soda bottle). This is my first time doing such a thing. Did I do the right thing by placing her in an ICU?
