Harry SOOC #41

The same night that Harry lost a claw he molted - that was a sight to see!

He turned brown while he was changing and we found his old blue skin on the bottom of the tank.

Then he turned blue again.

He looked pretty wonky while his antennae were molting.

  7. Love the blue!! He is so pretty once he gets finished. Molting never looks nice. But you are right, it is very interesting to watch.

  15. Eler Beth's gecko molts about every month. She always gets very pale just before. (And she eats the skin that molts. I guess it gives them protein, and keeps their homes clean.)

  16. It's truly amazing that they can just shed and grow new parts. Makes me wish I could do that!!!
