    GBB - Molt or Not?

    Here is a picture from this morning.

    GBB - Molt or Not?

    100% Sure she hasn't molted. She simply stopped eating on April 24th and has refused ever since. On top of her abdomen she has something that looks like a rash or something. Otherwise she is very slim.

    GBB - Molt or Not?

    Hmm, not sure about the silvery haze, need to check that when she is out, but her abdomen is very slim now.

    GBB - Molt or Not?

    Hi, How do you know if a GBB is in pre-molt or is getting ready for a molt. My GBB has stopped eating over a month ago now but that is all the indication I have. She doesn't have a bolt spot on her abdomen nor has she started webbing a silk mat. Well, I can't imagine that they web a silk mat...

    Potential Molting Problem - Need advise

    My LP has finally molted and it didn't choose to molt in its burrow after all. Was hoping it would be a female but it looks like it's a male. In any case all went well and he is stretching now [emoji3]

    Unexpected Molting

    While waiting for my LP to molt my juvenile Phormictopus Atrichomatus (Red Island Birdeater) simply went ahead with it. When I came in this morning it was sitting next to it's molt. Looks like it just popped out of it. Didn't make a mat and it also looks like it didn't go on its back. It seems...

    Arrived - Aphonopelma Chalcodes

    She has arrived and she is beautiful and this has nothing to do because she is blonde :). I could choose from two others which looked pretty shaken up with no hair on their back. This one was perfect and she is very docile.

    Arrived - Aphonopelma Chalcodes

    What a great day. Got a call from T shop telling me that a few Aphonopelma Chalcodes or Arizona Blonde Tarantulas arriving tomorrow :T::). Only 7 available and its the first time they are available here in Malaysia. They are already 4"+ which is great because they are very, very, very slow...

    Potential Molting Problem - Need advise

    Hi, As I mentioned in my other post my LP is now in pre-molt. Today, for the first time since I got the T it has started burrowing. I can foresee an issue if it decides to do the molting in the little burrow it made because the substrate isn't deep enough and the space between cage bottom and...

    It can't be long now...

    Btw. I made one part of his enclosure wet and it immediately went over to rest there.

    It can't be long now...

    Hi Everyone, When I came back home today I saw that the bold patch on my juvie LP had turned dark black. Can't be long now hopefully before she starts weaving her mat :). It will be her/his first molt since I got it. And it's big enough now to be sexed.

    Take to the Vet or no?

    Thivo, from what I understand the kitty ate it. So my guess is the smithi is not doing too well :)
