@justice1986 you can try food! Do you know when it last molted? If it refuses, then wait a while and try again... if it refuses again, its probably premolt. Or just fasting, which plenty of tarantulas do when temps drop this time of year. Once you experience a few molts with your tarantula, you'll get better at telling when your spider is in premolt.
I’m new to T’s I found him a few weeks ago and some one told me it have just molted the profile pic is what it looked like before now it looks like this I will try and feed it today
You found this sling? I wish I lived somewhere where I could find Ts in my back yard :wideyed:
As mentioned, dark spots are generally an indication of incoming premolt, but if it is an A. chalcodes and it recently molted, I highly doubt it's about to flip any time soon. I know all four of my Grammostola sp. slings have that darker patch on their abdomens, but all of them still are taking food for me. My suggestion would be as Nmil said and keep offering food as you have been until the little booger quits eating.
@Arachnophoric yes it was crawling on our bedroom wall it’s wierd because I’ve gone looking for where it might have came from and went up hiking and nothing lol so we are taken back lol I still don’t know
