so when i first got my b.boehmei sling it just hung out under its hide. Now he/she started to dig like mad and he has made a lair for himself but it looks like there is no entrance or exit? i see this because he dug next to the wall of the enclosure, i havent seen him outside of it in a few days ( because i dont think he can get out!) i looked all around and no possible exit for it as far as i can tell

suggestions? should i dig him out or will he dig himself out?

he's possibly in the premolt. He'll dig himself up, when he wants to.

Yes

If it burried itself it is normal and will come out when it is ready. their is nothing to worry about.

It usually takes them about a week till they're ready to molt, but You my slings can spend up to 2 weeks in their bunker. So don't worry if sth. like this gonna happen. Usual :)
