So, my Euathlus sp. red sling was doing what (s)he does best... wandering around, refusing food, you know, just the usual stuff...
But when I looked into the enclosure just a few moments ago, (s)he was taking a bath! On her/his back!!! :wideyed:
Seriously, I've never heard of or seen anything like this before. Although (s)he wasn't struggling in the slightest, (s)he almost gave me a heart attack. When I carefully tried to open the enclosure to have a closer look, (s)he rolled over, exited the pool quite casually and resumed its wandering around. What the...?
Is this also a tarantula just being a tarantula? Or is this something else? (S)he couldn't possibly just have tried to moult in the water, right?
