Sweet!
How big was it? How long was it in premoult? I'm currently waiting for my 1 1/4" to moult. He's been in premoult for a week now and yesterday finally stopped coming out of his hide; hoping to catch it moulting soon!

Its maybe .5'' cant really tell right now.. It was only in pre-molt for about 4 or 5 days.. I dont know when it started molting but it didnt take that long..

How long should I wait to try and feed? I have read to wait till they harden back up.. Which takes how long about 5-7 days right??

I share your endorphins - I look forward to my smithi's molts the most because moreso than any of my other T's, he gets prettier after each one.:clap:

I give him a week of rehab after his molt to start feeding again.
