[QUOTE="Ed Zeppelin, post: 135426, member: 27778"] [FONT=Georgia]I read a lot about folks like me that are new to the T culture that get overly concerned when stuff happens that they don't understand. Count me in. I have two A. avics that finally almost a month ago decided to web up and now they're both just sitting inside their webs doing nothing (the webs are near the top of their enclosures if that matters). Most every morning they seem to be in a little different position but still all webbed up. They're not eating or drinking (that I can see) unless they somehow sneak out in the middle of the night for a sip or two. Could they be in premolt and I not worry about it and just leave 'em alone? I also have an LP that that's doing the same thing, and at about the same time as the Avics. She just sits in her hide with the entrance pretty much webbed up with coco curtains. If these spiders are in premolt will they come down from their webs or leave the hide to molt? I've haven't dealt with a molting T yet so I'm looking for advice from those that know more than me (which would be anyone reading this). Any suggestions/opinions? Thanx.
