A hollow shell as in a whole complete shell? If you found a complete shell, then the baby roach molted. Tarantulas chew up their food by crushing it between the fang and bottom of the chelicera where tooth like structures are present while regurgitating digestive fluid on it. The resulting fluid is then sucked up. It would be highly unusual to find a complete shell, but typical to find bits and pieces of shell.I put a baby roach in my slings enclosure so my T can eat obviously but in the morning when I woke up I only found a hollow shell of the roach. Don’t T’s eat whole or does that happen once they grow older?
