[QUOTE="Gizalba, post: 198533, member: 31253"] Hi, I wondered if this is normal or something to worry about? I didn't think this species flicked hair but rather rubbed it, so I wonder whether he has been rubbing his hairs around the enclosure? Is this a MM thing to attract a female? The bald looks quite severe :/ I am also worried as I know they don't live that long once mature so wondered if this is an end of life sign. Amelia moulted into a mature male I think a few months ago. He was in the cork bark for ages and I've never seen the moult, so I am not sure when exactly; he just emerged one day with hooks. He is doing lots of wanderings so I think is looking for a lady now and will hopefully be going to ilovebrachys soon for mating. [/QUOTE]
