Hello friends, I was away from home for 3 days and after that I found my big female blondi dead over the water dish. She was recently molted(before a mount) and visually no problems, except one curved rear leg at the tip. Before a week she ate a superworm because of lack of bigger food. Last...

Thank you John, I know my blondi very well. I don't think this is some kind of calmness or so. She was very nervous before, when I do some cleaning around her. Very aggressive and prone to bite. Always! Nothing has changed in conditions, except the higher temps, but it was always this hot at...

Everything looks normal except her movement. She is not so fat and that is her lungs on the bottom of the abdomen. I have her from long time and know if something is wrong. Spraying and crikets are not big problem. I'm worried about the lack of strenght. Newer seen her that helpless, except when...

Will figure it out somehow. I have little experience with previous problem with her fangs, and know how to feed her. This time fangs are even shorter then first time, when she had bad molt. Can't understand why is this happening. She has 2 successful molts after the bad one and she recovered her...

Its fat, but previous molt was before 9 monts. Dont think she will make it whitout eating. By now she is doing fine, stretching her legs and changing her positions. After 1 more day will guide her to the watter dish. She was learned her lesson before when she had no fangs. When I touch her legs...

After 2 successful molts she is again fangless :( I'm not 100% sure, because she has molted yestarday night and as far as I can see, there is less then half the fangs left from them. Its her 13th molt and old skin is almost 8" from left rear and front legs. This time I dont have explanation why...

Hm, my blondi is okay for now. Has 2 molts after the bad one and now there are no signs of problems. Fangs are again at full lenght after 2 molts. After the first one, they were shorter and thicker. Now there are about 1/2" and soon she will molt again. Hope everything goes whitout problems...

I've got the folowing question. Has size of the superworm something elese with the sex of the beatle? Female beatles are larger then males. When I separete medium size superworms, they morph into pupas, then into beatles. But they are almost all small ones. Is this means they are all males? If...
