My H. Lividium is going through her (?) first molt in my care, and she's doing it sideways. Is it safe to flip her onto her back if I'm careful? Would that be too Stressfull for her?

As you can see, her 4 right legs are pinned under her body, I doubt she can pull them through. Advice?

I would still leave her to it,
she will probably wriggle herself free, this is always a worrying time for the carer

let us know how she gets on

She made it through all right, from what I understand, a sideways molt is not unheard of. I examined the molt and confirmed female Smile

I'll post pics sometime this afternoon Smile

very nice, I'm glad I didn't see my new cobalt molt, the first female I had died in molt.

Oddly, she's not a pet hole. I've heard I'm never going to see her except at night, but she hasn't made a burrow, and only sometimes hangs out in her hide.

Lucky me Smile

My rosie, however, went and burrowed under her coconut shell and webbed up the entrance. Either she's hiding, or still moody from her eggsac, which she ate.
