Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tawau Rianz" data-source="post: 27519" data-attributes="member: 3043">Hello there guys. First of all im glad to be here. And this is my first tarantula. But I do have experience keeping my Huntsman for a year now. So yesterday, I bought the OBT. I saw one missing leg of him/her. But then, there was only 1 OBT atm, so I just bought him. So then I rehoused him into the reptile tank. And he is acting really weird. I have dried up the substrate before housing him as I read he really don't like wet substrate. But then he still climb up over the cover and circling around. And this morning I saw him not moving at all. I just wondered is he/she okay? Usually he will just run away when I open the tank. But now he/she just ignores me. Is he/she preparing to moult? As I am expecting he is going to moult, I provide several cotton sheets in case she dropped from the tank cover after moulting <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" />. Because I think sling Ts are so fragile especially Baboon Ts. Can any of experienced guys and girls out there help me to figure this out. This is my 1st Ts and I am really worried. Here are some of the photos.<img src="https://copy.com/IAHapDpiyJOf" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="https://copy.com/jKWk2KvOH099" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="https://copy.com/4PwE4NPEGDUZ" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
