@ Leech: I can understand why one would use Vaseline, but unscented powder?? :unsure: Maybe you can elaborate ;)

Thanks Leechie

There is no white fluid running from it so that is a positive.

As Usumbara said, please explain the baby powder and what it does, I am officially curious!

The white liquid is its "blood". T blood does not coagulate (stall) that well. Baby powder helps this process. Unscented just means that there is no chance of harmful additives in the powder.

well if it make u feel better. ill tell u a story of my xenesthis spec blue that gave me sleepless nights.

the day i got her, she molted in the car. for some bizzare reason her abdomen got cut and she was bleeding
at a rapid rate. I took her out the tank risking the fact that she was still soft, put her in a container the size of
a ice cream tub. Then applied super glue and vaseline. After that i just made sure she was well
hydrated, and after a week i realised she is goona pull thru, i re did her tank and put her inside there.
Shes doing awesome now.

So if u can pick up any tips from wat i did, im sure it can help u now or in the future. ;)

My Advice is mostly from my personal experience, but everyone is
allowed to give there own opinion.

Took many a month but the little one finally molted again and all seems to have healed :)
I will have a closer look when it is able to eat again to see if it is alright but this T looks awesome!
