[QUOTE="Kazegal, post: 214911, member: 36550"] From the photos I would say she is quite plump as it stands. She could already be in premolt. Keep an eye on that bald spot, if it starts to darken it means a molt is imminent. At this abdomen size, she is good to go for a molt. Enough reserves. Some tarantulas stop eating for months on end and in some cases they even go a year without food. As far as the 3 feet drop goes, try to avoid this in the future. If you don't see any tarantula blood (grayish, white fluid) she'll be fine. [/QUOTE]
