And of course it's a PZB sling so tiny you can
hardly see it!
The T is back upright now and appears to be a little stuck in the old skin, more like stuck
ON it really. All of the legs are out and it
is stuck to the tip of the abdomen (sp?)
Should I leave it alone, or take the T out of the vial and remove it? :?

Take a small paint brush or eyedroper and wet the area thats stuck with a small amount of water. That should loosen it enough so it will come off.

BTW, congrats on the tiny molt..;)

Well, the little guy is still stuck.
I have to get him out and remove the skin myself.
After I do that I can try to get a picture. :) I only have
a crappy web-cam at the moment~~Still waiting for my
new digital-cam to show up:rolleyes:

Pictures...not real good ones though

Here are some pix of PZB #1
As you know it molted and was a little stuck:rolleyes:
Now it's not:)

Mr T, thanks for the tip. I knew thats probably what I would
have to do. I just needed someone to tell me I was headed in
the right direction. If this was a larger T I would have had no
worries, but it is so small that I was affraid. I didn't want to
hurt the tiny little beast;)

Enough babble, too much coffee, LOL!!
