Not thread jacking, but this is my first post!
Had my Rosie for a little over a year, age, last molt unspecified!
Any ways she hasn't moved or anything in 2 weeks! I think she may beginning to molt! (Hopefully)! Is it normal for a T to rest in one spot before the molt, and how long do they stay in one spot before they flip over? Here is a pic of her as she sits!

is she well hydrated? her abdomen looks kind of flat. and is she eating regularly? my tarantulas will stay in one spot but it is pretty normal for rosehairs to stay stationary for days with no reason at all

She hasn't moved! Last time she ate was Sunday before last! As far as hydrated, I don't really know, because she hadn't moved from that spot!
How could I give her water? To make sure she is either still alive or hydrated??? I am a noob at this!!!!

 

[Grammostola in my heart]

you shouldnt be if youve had her for a year.i almost feel sorry for her if you REALLY dont know how to care for her. does she have a water dish?
as far as telling if shes alive, lightly brush her abdomen with a CLEAN paintbrush

 

[Grammostola in my heart]

if you dont have a brush then use your hand

 

[Grammostola in my heart]

if she moves, your fine

 

[csjcsj]

Yes, she has a water dish, I fill it every day!

 

[Grammostola in my heart]

is it clean?

 

[csjcsj]

Yes it's clean! I clean and fill it every morning

 

[Grammostola in my heart]
