    White Flakes On Abdomen

    I dont ever mist the enclosure, though I have been told that this is both beneficial and detrimental to the health of the spiderling....As it stands right now, the top inch of the substrate is bone dry, though the rest still looks moist. I leave it like this, though I believe I may have to...

    White Flakes On Abdomen

    I just seem to be brimming full of questions today....Just went to check on my G. rosea, and noticed that on the upperside of the abdomen the skin looks to be very flaky and dry.

    cedric in distress

    yes, he's molted twice, though that was in the first few months of me having him. I'm trying the lamp just to get his metabolism up...it's worth a try for a little while at any rate. He was in a group of about 35 t's, and so far, having checked on the progress of the other spiderlings, he's a...
