One of my hermies moulted and I checked on it this morning and it looked dried out and when I touched it it didn't move but it doesn't smell. Not sure what to do. New owner to these little guys.

What looks dried? The shed exoskeleton or the hermit crab's real soft body inside the shell? Do you have photos that you can attach and share?
