I think I made a BIG newbie mistake. I haven't fed my tarantulas for a couple of weeks. So today I went to go check on them and saw that my A. versicolor spiderling wasn't moving. It wasn't upside down or anything. It looked like it was stuck in its web. So, I touched it. It still didn't move. I thought it was dying so I put it in an ICU and tried to give it water. Put it right side up in the deli cup. I checked on it again. Then I saw it. It was molting! Since it's not upside down, I'm afraid one of it's legs might get stuck. It's spread out like a normal standing spider. It's half way out now. I don't want to touch it again. But what should I do about that one leg that looks like it won't come out? Should I move it?
