I thought she'd moulted although she never pushed the old skin out. Turns out she had made and nursed a phantom egg sac and this morning she'd put it next to her water dish.I know it's not a fertile one, because I've had her from sling/juvie and she's never been with a male, but didn't know tarantulas do that <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" />. It's very fascinating (although my husband is a bit freaked and insists I put the sac in the freezer before sealing it in a bag and binning it lol).<img src="http://www.tarantulaforum.com/images/tarantulasmiley.jpg"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":T:" title="Tarantula Smiley    :T:" data-shortname=":T:" /><img src="http://i.imgur.com/AW95Qht.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i.imgur.com/R9iv1OW.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://i.imgur.com/M7nJfhq.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> At least I know now that she's 100% female <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
