[QUOTE="Flyingmonkey, post: 174601, member: 32816"] Hi! I hope I’m doing this right. Anyway I got a curlyhair tarantula last Sunday (i.e I have it around 6 days now). The person who sold me the T didn’t tell me how old it is, (or the exact species, he just said it’s curlyhair lol so I’m assuming it’s a T. albopilosus??) just that it’s female. the first photo is the previous enclosure from the guy i got it from. I immediately moved her into a new one...I’m waiting for a better/(taller??) one to arrive cause I’m getting it online cause there isn’t much option available where I am. She has been doing good since I’ve gotten her- she moved around, pooped in her water dish, etc...up till yesterday, when I noticed that she has been in the same corner all day. I checked her again today and it’s the same thing. I panicked and opened the enclosure and gently brushed her abdomen but she didn’t respond at all. But it seems that she has moved some of her substrate around a lil bit cause I don’t recall it being like that yesterday. I hope she’s ok...I’m really worried and scared that something is wrong :( There’s no smell or anything so I know she’s not dead... I have two other slings for about 6 months now and they’re doing ok, but I’m fairly new to the whole thing and it is my first adult T.[ATTACH type="full"]46734[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]46736[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
