[QUOTE="Huntzman90, post: 158067, member: 29032"] Ok so this is a lot to read but i wanted to be thorough.. My Caribena Laeta pink toe has been very lathargic over the past couple of weeks. I have recently rehoused it into a smaller enclosure (last one was too large.) Its been roughly two months since it has last fed and has not shown any obvious sign of premolt. I believe it was originally dehydrated as in the last enclosure the water dish was not mounted or close enough for the T to notice it. Since i have rehoused it i have noticed it has not webbed and doesnt seem to be drinking. Its since been sitting on the bottom of the enclosure. I know its still alive as it responds to my gentle paint brush taps and i have noticed it has appeared in different spots in the enclosure its in now so its still moving around. Its abdomen is quite small and most if not all of its legs are curled under. Just recently it has moved up onto the fake plant leaf in its enclosure. This is my first arboreal tarantula, i have two terrestrials that are both doing great, so i am not sure if there is something i am missing or if i am doing something wrong. Any advice on what to do next? I thought i put enough holes in for ventilation but could this be the issue? Last thing i want to have to do is euthanize my T but if it seems to be in pain I would hate for it to suffer. Any advice is much appreciated, I have only been in the hobby six months so I still have a lot to learn :) Sorry i do not have the best camera on my phone so the pictures aren't great, i can try again later with a better camera if it helps. Substrate : plain coco fibre Enclosure size : 16 oz deli cup T size : 1" - 1.25 " Room temp : 70°- 75° [/QUOTE]
