My Brachypelma hamorri molted about 6 days ago. It's a semi-adult tarantula, about 13-14 cm leg span. It molted on October 26th, and on the 1st of this month, it started moving again, but its movements are strange, as if it has no strength, as if it can barely support itself. It walks correctly, but it seems like it can't manage on its own, and I'm very worried. Is this normal behavior? It was my first tarantula; I've had it for almost 4 years, and I've had it since it was in a sling. I'm very afraid something might happen to it.

Are you able to post a video? 6 days is still pretty early for a spider that size. Give it another week or two.
Yes, of course, I'll post a video as soon as I can.
