[QUOTE="leaveittoweaver, post: 64008, member: 4055"] I bought her probably six months ago, only tarantula I ever got from a pet store versus a reputable dealer. When i first got her and put her in an appropriate enclosure, she immediately made a tube web and molted. She was eating fine after her molt and seemingly doing well. She hasn't eaten for probably two months now, and her abdomen has been shrinking. I just now noticed that she has a white crusty looking substance around her mouth. She has a water dish, and I added another one near her web so it would be more accessible. I have never seen her drink from either of them. I know I probably shouldn't be concerned. Tarantula probably just being a tarantula. But still figured i'd ask if anyone has any input? The only other thing I can think is maybe it's too cold in the room and I should add a space heater. She is one of two tarantulas that is in that room, the rest of them are in the walk in closet in that room which is probably a little warmer. Here is a pic of her set up, you can't see the water dished but they are in there. [/QUOTE]
