The first time i saw my first rosie do it years ago, i thought she was trying to eat her leg lol i could watch them do it for hours. Looks extra cool with lights off and filmed with night vision camera

Omg they are so funny lol. I love wash time, some of mine sit in there water bowls to groom there self. Hamlet stands on three legs and washes with the other five, she's very hygiene concious.

Ha they are norty spiders, poor smithi she probably likes privacy for a wash, not an exhibitionist like the Chile. Most of my rosies are show offs and don't care who's watching :)

Shes only flicked hairs once wen i first handled her ages ago. Shes on her own in the viv. I heard that they darken before a molt and she hadnt molted for a while so was just a guess. The vivs are right next to eachother. Do you think i should put a seeen between the two so they cant see eachother??

Nah defo not flicking hairs. Ive seen that before and was not that. It was a proper good reech around scratch to the arse. Just like a a bloke with ibs (itchy bum syndrome). Ive got a video of her doing it. Ill post it on wen next on the laptop as it didnt work on my fone
