What I would do is if the new enclosure you are planning to use is big enough to let their current enclosure fit in, you can just open the lid leave their enclosure there as is and let them all come out on their own that way you can be sure that they are all safe and you didnt bother them during...

Hi Eddie sorry for extremely long time to reply to your message, I just didnt receive your message notifications until now so I apologize for very late reply.. I know its been some months now that you messaged me so is there any improvements on the spider's appetite? did you check if she drinks...

Thank you so much :) she still refuse eating but I will try different foods, she had no problems taking superworms before but now she walks away from it so I dont know if she changed the type of food she prefers

Thank you so much for your reply :) yes she has her water dish full at all times and avicularia's abdomen is very small after the molt so I assumed she would be very hungry considering the size of her abdomen is but if you had adult avicularia how long did it take for him or her to accept food...

Yeah like @Sugar Wolf said it is a good enough height and it looks like a poop on the glass so its nothing to worry about :) are you using those glass enclosures that have mesh screen top? those screens are dangerous for tarantulas so it would be good if you could just replace it with acrylic...

Hi thank you so much for reading this :) I have lasiodora parahybana she was eating regularly normally but she stopped eating for long time now but when I drop food for her now she acts like she will eat it she even puts her mouth next to food but immediately leaves it alone after that, people...

It seems like he just kicked some hairs but nothing to worry :) they get those back in next molt always

Hi Dave if you keep water dish area moist and leave the rest dry brazilian black should be fine :) no question is dumb because you are asking them to learn something :)

If you want old world and if you feel comfortable I would suggest keeping obt again because they are very cheap baboon species or p.regalis is pretty cheap pokie its always nice to start with something cheap

Hi its nothing to worry about :) she is probably just stressed but once she calms down she will act like herself again :) you did nothing wrong so its nothing to be worried about, if you have more questions feel free to ask :)

She might also be shy eater like Jeef said they do change personality after each molt which can also change their appetite too so I would just leave the food next to her and check on her, if she doesnt eat it until the day or two just take it out and replace it with new food and you can try...

Does it drink water at least? if it drinks I wouldnt panic just yet, the only time you should worry is if abdomen starts to get very smaller but still not eating at all.. you know the area where they web from? check if there is something white there, sometimes tarantulas can get impaction that...

Hi is it adult or sling? for a sling 18 days would be more than enough obviously but sometimes very old adults it might take them up to a month before they are comfortable enough to accept food again but its very strange for curly hair to not accept food since they are one of the species that...

Welcome back to the hobby! what species are you planning to have this time compared to what you had before? :)

Pokies are very easy to raise as slings so I hope you enjoy it :) just make sure you add good enough ventilation to prevent mold and fungus and if you want you can add moss in the enclosure since these species benefit from humidity and keeping 1 side of enclosure moist but make sure not to keep...
