[QUOTE="Benttwig, post: 146761, member: 28896"] Ok so just an update. I caught my cobalt out of her burrow and in the open so I took the opportunity to rehouse her in a deeper 5.5 gallon tank instead of the 10 gallon she was in. It got pretty hairy but I got it done without getting bit so that's a plus. She decided to stick to the underside of the cage lid where she still remains. Hopefully she can navigate the fine mesh ok and eventually get herself down because it would suck having to attempt to get her down off the lid. On that note I decided to measure her while it's stretched out on the lid. Aside from a few pissed off strikes it was fairly easy. She is certainly no sling or even a juvenile. I measured the leg span at about 5 inches so to my knowledge that would make it an adult correct? Also is there a way I can sex her to make sure it's a female aside from a molt? The seller said it was too small to sex but gauging by its size that's completely false. Sorry for all the newb questions but I'm still learning the hobby as I go. Side note: shes not hanging like she is in the pics anymore and has all 8 legs on the underside of the lid. I just hope she can get herself down. [/QUOTE]
