Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kris" data-source="post: 44138" data-attributes="member: 3756">If anybody has any answers or suggestions I would greaty appreciate it.I've been in the tarantula hobby for years. I've only really had females though so males are kinda new to me. I've had two males so far. One was a mexican red rump and the other a giant brazilian white knee.One thing I've noticed is after both of them had their maturity molts they web and flip themselvs upside down like they are going to molt but they dont. They just flip upside down and nuzzle themselves in the web and chill laying upside down like that. If anybody knows why they do this that would be fantastic. I'm very curious why they are doing this. My females never do it, so I'm assuming it's a male thing.</blockquote>
