I am asking this because at least four of my bottom rocks have become loose from digging, and I am afraid the rocks on top will topple over. When I touch them with my hand they are rather wobbly. Would it be too stressful to the mother/babies to do this while she is holding?
 
Moving the rocks while a female holding is not a big deal. At times I'll have 5-6 females holding at once, but only need to strip 2 or 3 of them. That means moving a lot if not all of the rocks. The remaining holding females aren't affected at all...
 
Ok, just checking because I did not want sand and all of the gunk that comes off the rocks to bother her.
