Good afternoon, everyone!
I'm hoping you guys can help me solve a bit of a mystery. Today I went to check on my MM G. Pulchripes and there was a large wet spot on the substrate under his abdomen. He doesn't seem to be bothered by anything, he's even wandering around his enclosure (out prowling for lady spiders, I bet ). I got him up on the glass of the enclosure and did a pretty thorough inspection of him. I can't see any abscesses or visual signs of trauma. He's having no trouble moving around and he seems to be in a fairly "good" mood.
I don't think he's close to molting, since he went through his final molt a couple months ago. He spun himself a nice sperm web, recently. In fact, he generally seems really healthy (no sign of molds, parasites, or mites). The only other concerning thing is that after his last molt, he has stopped eating. Though, I think that is more about his age and being a mature a male.
Any thoughts on what this could be?
Thanks!
