Buddha's Surface Molt

Buddha lost his leg in a bad fall a few weeks ago. His gel leg had turned orange, signifying he'd be molting very soon.
Buddha was visibly breathing hard, you could see his gills and his entire posterior carapace moving. His exoskeleton is starting to split.
A view of his exoskeleton splitting from the other side.
Buddha eyes have emerged from his old exo. His gel leg has slipped through the old exoskeleton.
Buddha is almost fully out of his exoskeleton. His regenerated walking leg is darker than his other peripods.
Almost completely out...
Buddha is completely out of his old exoskeleton. Notice how easy it is to mistake an exoskeleton for a dead hermit crab.
