Hey guys and gals!
I have a baby Mexican Red Knee (sorry, I'm not too familiar with the scientific names) who just molted a couple days ago! She's about 3 inches from leg to leg now. Her body grew quite a bit and she looks like an awkward teenager! Ha.
Anyway... I've been trying to remove her "molt" and she won't let me. She molted in her cork bark (it's a hollow log type, and the molt is inside). Every time I try to grab the cork bark, she runs up to it and sits on the edge so she's touching the cork bark and her bedding.
How do I get her molted exoskeleton out? I don't want to piss her off. She really is a sweet little girl and I don't wanna make her mad or hurt her.
