[QUOTE="BossRoss, post: 20417, member: 2395"] I read a very interesting post on this forum about sexing my spider and I do not have the correct magnification entities to determine the sex at "her" size. So for the time I am going to call my spider a "her" and Bella is her name for the time being. :) I assume she did not molt on her back this time around(I did not see the actual molt unfortunately-I was soo sad) but she is completely out of her old skin but she was tucked down in a corner with the old skin right behind her and the little plant is in the way of me retrieving the old molt without disturbing her- I didnt want to push her around so close to after a molt- will see if I can fish the old skin out tonight after work. So far she loves to be handled, the first few times she was a little apprehensive but she got use to me really quickly and the last time I handled her she climbed onto my hand with very little to no motivation at all. No flicking hairs, no bites nothing.... yet :-) Thank you for the welcomes [/QUOTE]
