I have a half grown female Antilles tarantula. When I got up a couple days ago I found her on her back on top of her water dish (it has a sponge so she was fine). I knew what her being on her back meant so I rushed to get all the crickets that were in there out. But in the process of that it spooked her and she slowly flipped over. She hadn’t started to come out of her exoskeleton in any way when this happened but I know them being on their back means they’re at least beginning the process of molting. This was 2 days ago and she’s been extremely sluggish and hasn’t attempted to molt again and I’m a bit panicky. She has moved around a bit though, but she’s extremely slow and seems to have a difficult time holding herself up. Is there anything I should do to try and help her? Just give her time? Try and gently put her on her back? Anything at all? I’ve made sure her humidity and temperature are good.
