So I just peeked into my a. avic slings cage, and was surprised to find what looks like a completely different T. As of a few days ago, she looked very much like a sling, with the striping on the abdomen, and pinkish legs with black toes. Today, all I can really see are her legs and the very front of her carapace, as she's hiding pretty far back in her tunnel web. What I can see is completely black!
Is she about to molt? Or did she already molt, and is now starting to show adult coloration? She's about 1.75", maybe closer to 2", and I can't see a shed skin anywhere.
Also, I don't want to disturb her, but I haven't misted in a few days and I know moisture is important during molting. Should I mist?
