the best thing to do is leave him if you touch him now that will stress him a lot. he chose to go here so he should be okay.

keep us updated

is he on his back ?

For god's sake don't touch him. I'm sure everything will be fine. If he gets in a pickle, he'll move of his own accord

Oh, another question, how long should he be in the moulting postition for? Ive never seen him moult because he usually goes into his coconut and builds a wall around him for a couple of days, if he hasn't shifted by this time tomo should i be worried?

Our red rump did this morning. I got up and it was squished between its plant pot and the glass, and on its side. I left it obviously, and its all done and fine now.
