Hello everybody! How've you all been? It's been a little while since I've been on the site and my Mexican fireleg, October seems to be doing well. He's going to molt again soon for the second time this year (yay! He's getting bigger! I'll upload some pics of him soon.) right now though he's facing the opposite wall and sitting in a corner in his habitat, I can see him from where I am right now. Thing is he has some legs tucked up over his head and I've read that this can often be a sign of stress. I've been doing a lot of maintenance in his habitat lately and I'm sure he's a little mad at me for bugging him but I would assume premolt is a stressful time for any tarantula. Just checking, I'm sure it's no big deal and I'll just keep an eye on him but do you think he's okay? Is there anything I can do for him to calm him down? Is he even stressed at all you think?
