    Default It came out!

    I just got Beebee to come out today, I was worried because she hasn't come out for two days, and now I know why. The larva crawled out! I guess I was right in assuming that it looked full size in my previous post.

    She hesitated to come out of her immediate territory, but after the first trip she started acting fine, same as usual. I've seen her lick the wound a few times so it is definately bothering her somewhat. I'm wondering if I should clean it up a little? It has some scum in there, and I'm wondering what your thoughts are... would flushing it help prevent infection? What should I use? saline/hydrogen peroxide/benzalkonium chloride/?

    I'm glad she made it through the rupture

    EDIT: interesting... after looking at the pictures I wonder if our "she" is really a "he" that hasn't matured yet
