Hey need some help

[Arachnerd]

Hey guys my suntiger seems to be excreting some kind of fluid from its mouth I was wondering if this is a bad thing or just getting rid of extra venom? He also isnt active or moving when I touch or squeeze his deli cup. He ate last night tho so i dont think anything is wrong? Here is a picture

Hmm could it be a water drop he is drinking? Could also venom dripping a bit. You say he ate last night, and from the pictures he looks healthy. I wouldn't worry.

I agree with Tgirl - looks healthy

Thanks for your help guys I really appreciate the input. After researching this a bit further I found that they can collect water droplets and drink from them if they get thirsty and thats what this might be. I just looked at him again and found that after about 3 hours the droplet was gone. I am sure he is fine but ill keep an eye on him and see whats up.

he could also have been grooming. they excrete a substance when they grooming, but either way its doesn't look like its some to worry about.

I also read that they do this as well either way Im confident he is fine now he has been moving around and stuff thanks for the help guys!

It seems like a water droplet its drinking from.If it were venom it would be a slightly yellowish colour and not a clear fluid.
