Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dave S" data-source="post: 27860" data-attributes="member: 3064">I recently joined the tarantula hobby.  I have beautiful little pink toe.  Not sure male/female yet.  I have the enclosure between 74 night and 84 day wIth the humitidy between 65 -85 % as best I can.  It ate about 6 crickets and 1 small moth between Sun (when I got it) to Tuesday.  I offered a cricket on Wed with no intrest. So I removed it the following am. The abdomen looks to be nIce and firm (full)I read that when full a young (spiderling) spider will turn down food or begin the molting process. Being new,  I'm just trying to stay on top of things and try to improve my skill at careing for the little one (s)It's sitting on the side wall of the enclosure in its hidinh area. I don't think anything is wrong but just want to be sure</blockquote>
