Message: <blockquote data-quote="Casey K." data-source="post: 178687" data-attributes="member: 1090"><p>I agree with you but what makes a tarantula get stuck in a molt in dry conditions if they secrete that fluid between exoskeletons?  Then it wouldn't matter what type of environment they molt in.  It does make sense for them to retain that fluid but sometimes that fluid alone is not enough?  Could you see a tarantula molting better in dry heat or humid heat?  See what I'm getting at.... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
