MY P. METALLICA MIGHT BE HURT

[alexarachnid]

I came in to check on him and he had what looks like blood dripping from his mouth. What do I do?

 

[Poonjab]

I don’t think that’s blood. Probably grooming liquid. It’s normal.

Thanks so much!

My OBT does this regularly and generally after a meal.

Okay, that makes sense because I feed him recently.

I see you’re from Oregon. Where about? I’m currently in Corvallis.

 

[alexarachnid]

No way! I used to live in Corvallis! I don't feel comfortable saying by exact location, but now I live somewhere pretty close to there.

I understand, no worries. Just always like to ask when I see other keepers with the Oregon tag.
