So my P. murinus has been is the upside down position for about 30 hours now and I haven't seen any change in its position. So they normally take this long? I was going to give her a week before I even considered moving her.

What's the size of your specimen? I know they can take a long time, and don't move her on my account because I am not sure at all- but 30 hours doesn't sound right.

Idk, I can't really tell due to the hide its in. The humidity is elevated in their too. Higher than I normally keep it too.

So could it have molted and just not came back out yet? I had one recently stay hidden for an entire month...I could only speculate as to when it actually molted.

Well I can see the T, I just can't see anything that is happening. The legs are laying flat now, not up like before.
