Could anyone help me with some info I have a 4 inch aphonopelma chalcodes female I've had her for about awhile now. I wanted to know what the signs are for molting, compared to the first day that I got her she has been acting really weird staying in her hide all the time and even webbing out the entranc, and has really not shown any activity than she usually does. Another question is the I have juvenile obt she is surprisingly really slow and has not shown any signs of aggression I heard this species is extremely fast and has a bad temper and mine has shown the complete opposite, is this a sign that she is in anyway sick or did I just luck out and get a really nice obt. By the way I still respect the fact that she is a fast species spider and is always careful when transferring her or feeding her.
