[QUOTE="JC1, post: 55532, member: 4102"] sorry guys, my phone didnt allow me to upload pics. but i have done so now. its still on its back... i placed a warm water bottle under the cage, with a towl over it to get the humidity going. a work friend of mine suggested to mist the spider to help it molt. im not sure about that.... she says that it needs to be wet to come out of the old skin.... should i gently mist it? i dont know if its dehydrated, or entering a molt stage. its been 16 hours now... its still moving its legs..... but the friend said its like being sun burnt for them.... they need to be misted on, so they can get out of the old skin. what the heck.... i dont know.... dont want to drown it, by misting it.... pictures below!
