D: Poor Sky. S/he's not moving. Hasn't eaten in days (maybe even a week... not sure). I thought s/he would molt, but so far, s/he's has just been sitting on the side of its vial and then Hubby said he checked Sky before he left and she fell from the side of the vial to the substrate and didn't move.
So we've been keeping the Ts at about 78-80 degrees with 70-80% (average) humidity. I usually try to leave a drop of water on their webs so if they want to drink, they can. I do that once or twice a week, depending on how dry the substrate looks. They get fed small crickets once a week, sometimes twice. And we never leave the crickets in there for more than a day of they don't eat them, they are removed. Skweezeme is doing fine, s/he's been eating well. I don't know what happened or what I didn't do for Sky that I did for Skweezeme to have such opposing results.
I moved Sky (and probably shouldn't have :\) from her vial to a flatter dish with a damp paper towel and a water bottle cap with some water in it. I tried to give it a tiny bit of water, but I don't know if that did any good. I'm wondering what am I doing wrong?? If it's my husbandry, I'd like to fix it before something happens to Skweezeme and/or Squirt.
Gonna give her a couple of days. I hope she pulls thru and molts. I hope that's all this is. I'm sure I shouldn't have moved her, but she's been acting funny for about a week, right about the time Skweezeme molted. I checked her out, her fangs are fine, her tummy isn't wrinkly. IDK! D:
