I’ve had Ron Webbsly for about two months now. He is a Mexican Grey Rose Tarantula (Tliltocatl verdezi). So far he’s been a really awesome tarantula and he’s always been a good eater but the past two weeks he has not been eating. He is not moving today, I lifted his hide and it does seem like maybe he recently dug himself deeper than when I checked yesterday. I’m concerned about this bald-looking patch on his abdomen and the fact he isn’t moving/eating. Not sure if he is getting ready to molt or something more serious is going on. Any advice is appreciated! (I cannot figure out how to attach his photo here)</blockquote>
