It took about 1 month before I notice that it had moved a tiny bit at all. I rolled it over and used a small syringe to give it a drop of water once or twice a day if you didn’t drink it in 10 mins I would take a paper towel and soak it up and placed him back on his stomach there s not much to do just wait and give it water.  I originally wasn’t even going to ask about this little baby I found but I thought it would be good if I did so if others were in this situation could know a little bit about what to do. It’s been 6 maybe 7 weeks Since I found it and hasn’t eating anything I can’t leave water in a dish or anything it always ends up falling in it and I don’t want to drown. One thing I noticed though right before it was able to move it’s little feet would stick on the syringe so I guess that’s an indication it had some type of movement. I do need to find something to else to put it in because it gets stuck up at the air vents and hangs there from one leg until I get it down I’m  afraid it’s going to lose another leg it only had 7 when I found it. Good Luck I hope the best for your new critter. I keeped it on a dry paper towel I’m glad I’d did so I could see it because with this coconut fiber he’s the same color and I can’t see him on it and I didn’t know anything about spiders.</p></blockquote><p></p>
