Hiya!


So for more then a month now i'm added my 4th T in my collection a Hysterocrates Gigas well known as the Cameroon Red Baboon Tarantula, so yesterday i was in for a suprise she molted! What a great news that was. Now i'm not knowing the drill how too check if its a male or female i know its under the abdomin but how too put it nicely appart without breaking it, could someone maybe tell me how it needs too be donne. Thanks!

put some lukewarm water into a bowl then add a couple drops of dish soap. put the molt into it for 3-5 min this will soften it up so you can spread it out for examination. the link below will help you with basic anatomy of T's.
