I think I see a black spot. Looks like it may moult soon, which is why is isn't eating. also, what is the temperature in your room if you have no heat source. They should be kept around 75-82 degrese F.

Yes it is a black spot further back but he ate last night eat a mealworm but I see another forum the spiderlings eat before 2 or 3 days before moult.Thanks for answer in my room is 77-86 degres F I believe that the plastic is higher temperature.Thanks for tips,I quietly.

i have a 2cm a.genic it molted february 7 but i fed him on february 6 and molted perfectly. he/she would be fine.

 

[Danutzu333]

Well I think it's better if he/she eat before the moult to accumulate more fluid and help to moult.It's good as I say?

This abdomen is pretty fat and its fat enough for him/her to molt.Dont disturb him/her,just leave alone.

Yea I was thinking it lookd kinda fat as well. I would guess its about to molt too. I hear not to feed it for about a week or 2 after the molt. This run true with bigger Ts too?
