I don't know if this is a stupid question/whether this is normal for tarantulas, but should I be worried about those little like gaps in the 'fur' on Bellatrix's legs? Sorry the photo isn't that clear. I have also noticed them on Misty. I thought maybe it was a pre-moult thing but they are still there after the moult.

It's perfectly normal to see this on all tarantulas....there's nothing stupid about asking questions- it's more stupid when questions are not asked when they really should be

Concur with Ilovebrachys. No dumb questions. Taranrulas don't have true setae between their leg joints. Just like people who don't have much hair at the elbows wrists or knees.

Haha thanks! That is a relief to hear.
