[QUOTE="Therasoid, post: 49061, member: 3538"] Awesome! From the photo, its a well fed T, judging from the abdomen size. Also, its looks to be between the sling/juvenile stage. I'm leaning towards premolt now, seeing its been 4 months since the last molt. I see no hide in the enclosure other than the moss. Suggest placing a small clay flowerpot, or something similar, half buried for it to call "home". Great size and placement of the water dish, btw. Also doubling the depth of the substrate will be of great benefit. 1 if it wants to burrow it can do so and 2 less likely to sustain an injury from fall. Rule of thumb (terrestrial): 1-1 1/2 times the DLS of tarantula to the space between substrate surface to top of the enclosure. Hope this helps. [emoji4] [/QUOTE]
