Just noticed today that the mouth is looking strange. It is coming out and white. Hasn’t changed in 2 hours.

Any help identifying what’s happening and if I need to do anything is appreciated.

Odd for sure. Never seen my BTAs do anything like this. Following along.

Be on the look out for a nice brown string of poo. Mine will do almost the same thing when about to do it, but generally not as much. One more thing, and it is hard for my old eyes to tell, but is the mouth just puckered up and extended out, or does it look like the inside of the mouth is outside? If it is the latter, there may be an issue. When my poo, they extend the mouth, but do not show any part of the inside of the mouth, if that makes sense.

My rock nems do that when I over feed. Most of the time when I’ve seen that, it poops then goes back to normal. Sometimes I’ve seen rough nems that don’t recover and melt. Those have almost always been bleached and doing bad already so yours should recover
