    Spiderling very weak after molting

    Thank you. I'll dry it out. All the information I found on them said they lived in the rainforest (If I remember correctly one site even recommended 85% humidity) They do seem to prefer the drier area usually ( though, the larger one was in the damp area earlier today). The water dish is very...

    Spiderling very weak after molting

    Seems to be back to normal...........Sorry.....I panicked:oops:. It seems that you (Martin Oosthuysen) think that the humidity may be too high? I did research the species before I acquired them and it said they need up to 60-75% humidity. I do try to keep it at the upper level since they are...

    Spiderling very weak after molting

    I haven't actually offered food, I was just checking because in the past they've eaten a few days after molting and I noticed that s/he wasn't acting normal. This one is much more shy than the other one, but, still usually more active than s/he is right now. Just seems very weak :( Is it...

    Spiderling very weak after molting

    Sorry, not great picture, but, the best I could do at the moment. Seemed a little perkier, after being under the light (I think, could just be wishful thinking). His/her sibling is under the same conditions and is doing great (but, that one was always more active/outgoing/aggressive than this...

    Spiderling very weak after molting

    My Lasiodora parahybana spiderling molted a few days ago. I didn't see the actual molt, but, found the exoskeleton and it looked fine. I left him/her alone to recover and checked him/her today to see if s/he was ready to eat and s/he seems very weak and unresponsive, which is unusual, normally...

    Not eating, losing weight

    Thank you both for the replies. He was in a front corner this morning and I was able to get a better look at him, his pedipalps are definitely bulbous, so I'm afraid his days are numbered. I'll continue to offer him food (I'll keep an eye on it and won't leave it in long). You're right it would...

    Not eating, losing weight

    My Avic. hasn't eaten in months and he's losing weight. Lately he's getting lethargic and actually going to the bottom of the enclosure. He's on the bottom right now. He was drinking OK for most of that time, but, I haven't seen him drink in the last couple of weeks, but, I have been leaving him...

    Gender opinions (A. Avicularia)?

    Thank you. I was thinking male as well. I thought I had clearer pictures, but, I can't seem to find them. I'll try to get some better pictures (he's quite a bit hairier now, though) to double check

    Hope these pictures are clear enough. Opinions on gender? Thank you :) !!
