    Molting or just dead?

    I took into consideration that it might not be appropriate to leave anything behind when cleaning. My first thoughts were if there was if the pokie might think another T is in that territory and become stressed. My second thought was if the other T might have left urticating hairs embedded in...

    Molting or just dead?

    I have him in the freezer lol, i just can't let go. I wanted to mention also that we cleaned out his cage, put some fresh dirt in and everything, cleaned up poop etc. Then we moved the pokie into it. The only thing i asked my husband not to clean up was the webbing in the corner that the old...

    Molting or just dead?

    He hasn't moved not one bit. This sounds ridiculous but how long should one wait before they pronounce a T dead. I'm going to wait over night just for that small chance. He was a juvie when i first got him. He has molted about three times since I've had him. I got him from the pet store and...

    Molting or just dead?

    Where can i find details about how a tarantula molts, because i can't seem to find information when i search - not the basic, but actual breakdown of process. I drained out a bit of water water from the cap as much as i could using an eyedropper so that it's not overflowing as much, ism not...

    Molting or just dead?

    My pink toe tarantula that I've had for two years is either molting or dead. It is laying on it's back in it's water cap, with it's legs all bunched together like a tarantula would have if it were dead, except for one leg sticking out. I've watched this T molt before and this is abnormal to...

    Cleaning old fish tank / enclosure questions

    Get some cheap dish washing liquid, pat it all around the tank, then leave it over night or several hours, this will make things much simpler. After just wipe it off with sponge. I have a lot of build up issues in my house, because we don't have city water - only well water, so we have to...
