    My feather duster came out of its tube today and it looks like it's got two heads now. Should I be concerned or expect it to die or something. [​IMG][​IMG]

    Is it completely out of the tube? It's hard to tell from the pic. IME, if he's all the way out, you can just gently move him to a safe spot in your rocks and he'll make a new tube.

    I'm wondering if it's splitting into two and that's why it came out....? maybe, but they should form a new tube.

    Well, what happened? Did he make a new tube or split in two?
