Oh Crap!!

I think I have just destrubed a Smithi that was on its back ready to molt.

I was doing tank maintance, as you do, I lifed up the little cork thing and he was in a hollow on the cork, and fell down onto his back (only about an inch) onto the soil and is now hardly moving!

I know hes not dead as he's not scrunched up, but hes spread out like he had flipped over.

I feel awful now Do you think I would have killed him??

Panic over, hes almost out his old skin (my god that was quick!)

Looks like hes alright.

Yeah I did see it all, bit worried as he molted right side up, but he seems fine now.

Gave me a scare anyway...
