Or just shed all your urticating setae in one go...

Saw some clumps of what I thought was dust on the abdomen of my MF L. klugi. Nope, that’s just several clumps of urticating setae. She never flings hairs (she prefers to threat pose when agitated) so I was surprised to see all that shed hair.
@Nmilburn14 honestly, not sure. She last molted in October, so I'm not expecting her to molt til then. If she is developing a bald patch due to yesterday's shedding, then it is quite dark. On the other hand, she seems to be acting normally except for the shedding. Due to her abdomen size, she is only eating once every 3-4 weeks right now, so she could be refusing food and I'd never know it.
