[QUOTE="plessey, post: 6740, member: 373"] As long as the spider is at room temperature then I wouldn't worry about that side of it. In the wild they will put up with a lot lower temps just fine. The fact that the legs are curled under it means there is definitely something up. I would suggest moving it into a tub with just damp paper towel and a shallow water bowl. Put the spiders mouth in the water and if it is just dehydrated then it should come around pretty quickly. If it is something else then all you can do is leave it be in the ICU and hope for the best.
