Sorry to hear about your loss my friend I hope you feel better soon :( if you just leave a piece of moss that can also help them with hydration that's what I do with very small slings and as soon as they hit about big enough size I put smallest tattoo ink cup as water dish to provide double...

I would just give them proper size cricket, mealworm or superworm.. I am not sure if can food has anything bad in it but I personally trust live food better for feeding

Yeah it is sad when you have male though what you truly want to have is a female but don't be sad my friend we all had a male at one point or other especially if you raise unsexed sling or get unsexed juvenile or sub adult. Males are part of the keeping but they can be very good to have if in...

I usually give pre-killed mealworm that I can find the smallest for 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 or 1 inch slings.. I just let them eat whatever they can from the worm and just remove the remaining after. What is everyone's way of keeping their slings? :) I am just curious and the reason I posted this is to...

Thankfully it didn't happen yet but since coco fiber has reputation for molding can it spread the mold on cork bark too?

You're right sometimes workers aren't sure what they're selling so it's better if I look too

Thank you I apologize for crappy quality picture but I dont have the latest phone with better improved camera quality so it was the best i could take

It's tliticalt albopilosum and I havent measured the size but if you want to know sure no problem :) this is actually good news

I posted it, by the way the species is t.albopilosum as you can see from post's title :) I could find mickey mouse looking things that I circled it red but nothing that looks like antenna which tarantula keepers call them spermethecae :) real name of that part :)

I couldn't find antenna looking things at both end but there's something like Mickey mouse looking

This is the best picture I could take out of molt

So the middle abdomen is completely empty right? There's nothing at all there right? Neither spermatheca or other parts that can flip up or down..? But I did find something transparent looking on this molt even though I couldn't see any spermatheca that looks like antenna so that makes me why...

Do you know how isopods and springtails don't disturb the tarantula during molt? As far as I know everything literally stresses tarantulas when they're near by the tarantula that's why never felt comfortable with adding them in enclosure. If worker sold me topsoil after telling what I exactly...

I actually seen problems using coco fiber sometimes too especially on humidity dependent species so every once in awhile I change it because I see mold growing here and there. Do you know full pros and cons of topsoil? I might actually rehouse next tarantula in that if it's not going to give me...

I personally use moss on humid dependent species but like Dorifto said you can try his suggestion too. Did you also try all the food sources pet stores has? some tarantulas dont eat crickets but they eat superworms all the time so she might just be one picky spider if she refuse to take it. Also...

On molt's abdomen part I see all the parts females have too but I cant find the spermathecae, but my question was those stuff I found are they normal on males too? like I said I didnt check male molt in a long time so since I could find all the parts except for the spermathecae I dont want to...

Did you notice when she stopped eating food? Do you remember the living conditions she was in before she decided to not eat anymore? these are important details that can hopefully help you if you remember

Did you try all the food sources for her yet? If you haven't you can try feeding superworms to see if that will make her abdomen look better

I am sure there are some moss in areas I am not able to see but putting plenty of moss can help her out with the humidity she needs. If it's not in the enclosure do you have any sphagnum moss with you that you can use in the enclosure? Hopefully she becomes fine after a molt
