I am so sorry my friend, I had hoped she would correct it on the next moult, my thoughts are with you ❤️🫂.

How sad, sorry for your loss 12 years is a long time. Never easy

...her a feeding dish but to no avail. She wouldn’t eat anymore. Tried placing her fangs in the water dish but came back a hour later and still no response. Just lost a male t albo last year before it matured. To an underside abrasion cyst thing now another loss. While still Alive a few pictures.

I lost a few Ts to similar issues. https://arachnoboards.com/threads/underside-abrasion-help.364825/

...this year, already an adult. Looking closer at the photo of her lying down, you can tell there was already something going on in that area: A cyst? A wound? I’m not sure. But the speed of the healing—less than 5 hours—shows just how incredibly complex and fascinating the molting process...

PRISONERs are always trying to get free. My lp that died of a cyst used to always bite it’s plexiglass lid trying to escape . I’m shocked it’s fangs didn’t break .

I once got a cork hide covered in mold along with a sick Stirmi with w cyst, I cleaned the hide and still use it, but couldn’t save the spider. Some times you get ripped off !!! Why would someone be so lazy they won’t clean a hide ??? A sick t should never been sold either.

My concern there is that it looks similar to a cyst. May not be, but I’d just keep an eye on the area and reduce feedings if you suspect that it is. Even if a bit of the carapace is still stuck, the spider will be fine. Your main areas of concern are the chelicerae (at least one fang completely...

...so its mouthparts are in the water, just make sure the book lungs are not. There have been other posts on the forum about tarantulas who had a cyst or other similar type of bulge/growth on their abdomen, with mixed results. Some rupture when the T tries to molt, others seem to improve with a...

...As for the lesion, all you can do is wait. If the molt is intact enough, inspect it carefully to see if there were any signs of an abrasion or a cyst developing that you just weren't able to see before. These things happen sometimes, and they often heal over the next molt or couple of molts...

Maybe a tiny cyst I cannot tell .

Didn't stop eating because of the cyst, it stopped eating because it's already fat.

Looks like a cyst

That looks like a cyst close to bursting. I suggest you stop feeding her till she moults shes a big girl so shouldbe ok with this, make sure she has access to clean water 24/7 and hope she moults before it bursts. If it does burst you want to try and remove any gunk from the cyst (you don't...

...you noticed any other behavioral differences? Lethargy, not drinking, not defecating, etc.? I agree that it looks like some kind of tumor or cyst, but sometimes fecal impaction presents as a swollen/enlarged abdomen (although, this is more localized than you would expect if it was...

In your experience, did the cysts ever go away after molt? Or was this eventually a fatal issue...

You were provided a defective it seems. If you bought a car with a blown out tire, would you accept that too? Seems like it was a cyst, hard to say, your pics are not good enough. All you can do is go low on feeding. A few of my terrestrials had them. There's a group in Europe that THINKS they...

Thank you... I have not seen her bleed or leak anything. I have a bowl of water in her enclosure although I haven't seen her go down to drink from it. I've only had her for two days now so maybe she is still settling in. What would the cornstarch be used for? Sorry! I am a tarantula newbie...

Looks like a cyst....keep her well hydrated but do not let her get fat on food! You need to keep her abdomen down. Get some corn starch to have on hand in case it leaks hemolymph. You must be very careful not to get it on her book lungs though. It made bleed again any time and then again when...
