I checked on the Ts just now, and my P. sazimai was in a death curl. It still has some movement, but I was able to flip it onto its back with ease. It was fine when I last checked it a couple of days ago, but it hasn't eaten for a week or so, just stayed in its burrow, so I thought it was in premoult. Apparently not. Glad I checked!
Its abdomen is very plump, so it's not dehydrated, but I did drip some water onto its mouthparts just in case. It didn't drink.
I suspect that the substrate may have been too moist, and that coupled with some blocked air holes from the burrowing, it's ended up with a stagnant, stuffy deli cup. So I've moved it into a new deli cup with dry substrate and a water bowl.
Anything else I can try or is it just wait and see now? I've never had a T in a death curl before, I'm pretty gutted right now.
I have photos on my phone, I'm just trying to work out how to post them.
