Answer:

Maybe the best answer is sure you can if you are really that incredibly lazy!
You can, Something to think aboutWhen you flip the burger it gets complicated because you will tear the foilI would cook without it, then get the pan soaking as soon as the burgers done, Cleanup would be easier then scraping foil off your burger.
Believe me: If he's dead you'd know There will be a sort of ocean/fishy odor when he shedsIf he's dead there will be a horrid stenchDon't worryJust keep the humidity up and let him do his thingThe larger the hermie, the longer it takes for them to shed Note: make sure he's by himself in the enclosure, as the others will stress him out and may very well try to eat him in his vulnerable state.
