Today I've managed to get a good look at my B.Smithi Juvenile, and for the first time I have noticed a large bald patch on his abdomen, which I've never seen before now. He's never kicked any hair that I have witnessed (unless this could have been when he has took his food back into his hide) but it seems pretty big to have missed until today.
I've had him for a little more than a month now, and he has now gotten himself into a pretty good eating routine of having a cricket every Friday night. He's not recently refused food, so I hadn't thought he was in pre-moult or anything, but is this a sign that he could be about to? Do T's loose a lot of their hair before a moult?
Also a little side question is that is it still normal for him to be hiding away a lot? He does seem to have settled in quite well, but still seems a little jumpy (if we open his viv to feed or change water, he scoots back to the end of his hide at lightening speed and still seems a little skittish.)
Thanks in advance
