@cold blood Yeah, she's plump. She's gotten quite lethargic these last few days, hence me being able to get this picture. But she's still eating, no doubt about that. She's gotten about one meal per week since I paired her in August. No webbing though, just a lot of basking like you see here. Almost no time is spent hiding these days. @Blue Jaye suggested that I rehouse her and bump the humidity to try and trigger a sac.
@cold blood I somewhat need to rehouse to really give her a downpour. Hard to explain, but her enclosure leaks. It's an easy fix, but I need her out of there to fix it. On top of that, I really don't see where she'd be able to lay a hammock for a sac - it's not a small enclosure, but the shape of her cork tube doesn't leave much flat floor space.
@cold blood Firstly, thanks for the cheap giggle. Secondly, don't they have to make a hammock and then roll it up into the sac? I actually thought all tarantulas produced sacs the same way...
My god. I haven't had a newbie moment in awhile. Teach me!
@cold blood Huh, interesting. Makes sense though. And no, there really isn't. She's been perfectly content in the enclosure, never saw a reason to rehouse her. The only places I can think of would be in the cork tube at the bottom or in the far corner (last picture):
I don't think she'd have an issue making a sac in there.
I do think its less likely she will lay a sac if its dry though, so if you can't add enough water, then maybe a re-house is in order. Where's the leak?
