[QUOTE="Dave Jay, post: 132382, member: 27677"] After reading this thread it seems there might be some hope of recovery IF the wasp didn't lay an egg. To summarise - The Tarantula was being attacked by a wasp, was paralysed but no egg laid. Water was given by flipping the T on its back and drops applied to the fangs. Later mealworm 'guts' were applied to the fangs. The legs were moved by hand to pump fluid. After a while the T could stand and move a little and would drink water or guts by itself from a dish. Eventually it seemed to recover fully and was sent to a new home where it lived for 6 years before dying from unknown causes. [/QUOTE]
