After only owning my G Pulchra for 8 days, I checked on her this morning and she was on her back and has been all day, I took my dog out this afternoon for 30 minutes and came back to a near exo !, this was why she wasn't eating, it's also the first time I've ever seen a T in real life go through a molt, its fascinating to watch.

I caught my G. pulchripes finishing her molt and admittedly with legs everywhere it was hard to tell what was what.

I am not a molt expert by any means, but I am sure. You can see her spermathecae.
Well your far more experienced than me, I need to do more research, thank you for taking the time to explain, as I said I wasn't doubting you but I bought her off a woman who got her free from someone who said she was a she, so I just needed 100% clarity.
