Hmm, mild panic here...
I just went to feed my B.Auratum only to discover a white clump on her abdomen. Fortunately, she's very calm and didn't seem to mind me taking a clean paintbrush to it softly (hair-side) and brushing it away. It came away very easily and stuck to the bristles. It's a greyish-white fluff. Any idea what this could be? I can't get a photo unfortunately.
EDIT: Upon inspection after it seems that it's also taken off a small amount of the 'black' on her abdomen, revealing a little brown opening, almost like a chink in a cars paintwork. Mild panic is swiftly becoming worry...
