Haven't heard dork or jerk for years
Maybe the last time I heard those was when I used to watch home and away after school.

lol. thats funny. We dont say jerk alot but we sure do use the word dork on each other. my wife calls me that more often than i care to admit. lol I think it is weird the differences in words we use from uk to the usa...like calling a shopping cart a trolly and a flash light a torch. and stuff like that.

that doesn't sound good!
My concern there is if she/he catches it on something it could split
Could you somehow moisten it so it breaks free?

Let us know how u get in

Yeah cotton bud. Don't get water on your T. Moisten the old skin and hopefully it will come loose.

You can try a tarantula ICU. Though I must say it has fallen out of favor with some of the hobbies veterans. It is a small container with moistened paper towel and a little extra warmth to kick up the humidity. I would ask some of the seasoned T keepers on here like @Martin Oosthuysen @Denny Dee @Poec54

Finding that site, and using a cotten swob I brushed the molt, and raised the humidity from 50% to close to 70%. I placed her back on her heat pad, and now I shall wait. If nothing progresses I shall contact one of these members.

I have never tried this procedure. The longest any of my T's have gone through a molt was about 36 hours. I just made sure the humidity was kept at the right level during that time and they did not require any special process. Wish I could have been of more help on this one. I did have a six-eyed sand struggle removing the molt off its front leg (when I went to remove it, imagine my surprise when it exploded from under the sand! ).
Hopefully someone else has more experience in this department than I do? Good luck!
