Rosie ate three mealworms and a cricket October 3rd. Where I over fed her/him I'm waiting until the 25th or so to feed again. She/he has the whole surface area of the enclosure covered in web, and hangs out on the branch all day waiting. The enclosure is very dry now, no more mold growth. Temp stays at 80-83F and humidity hovers around 35-40%.Brachypelma albopilosumCurly is in a 1 cup glass Pyrex dish, with the soil lightly moistened and a small water dish. I only have enough substrate for him/her to burrow 1/2 inch or so. Curly eats once a week, and so far has never turned down a meal. He/she has molted once since I got them, How often can I expect a molt? Close to a 1" in size.I do see a bit of white mold once in a while and I just remove, still trying to find a Springtail source.I check on them a few times a day.</blockquote>
