First Molt!!!

[bloody mary]

Hey people....I thought I'd let you know that my first tarantula is having her first molt! I'm kind of scared....as far as her conditions go, I've got 75 percent humidity and 75 F........How long do you think she'll take? She's got her top off, but she only started a half an hour ago.....she's still right side up.....Any help would be appreciated....Thanks

Welcome here

I know exactly how excited you are, I remember the first molt I saw... But now you should not do anything, just let the T finish the molt...
As for the humidity and temperature it depends what species you have got? :?

Good luck

Just keep the humidity up, and your T should be fine. Also, make sure you don't have any crickets in the T's tank, as they could attack and injure your tarantula while it is molting.

paint me a better picture here... are you saying that the cephlothorax has already 'popped off' and the spider is on it's feet? not on its back yet?
