What exactly do you see that makes you think premolt?OMG YOUR T IS DYING.....no jk its premolt
looks like another beaten up WC Theraphosa that will hopefully live long enough to see its next molt.
Later, Tom
Haha true, "Cherry picked" should never be applied to WC, maybe "unfortunately picked"Unfortunately. What is worst is that those who sell them normallyp
include the "cherry picked" CRAP.
The premolt starts a long time before the darkeningit doesn't look premolt to me the abdomen (especially the bald spot where you can see the tarantulas skin) will noticably darken in premolt
That's why "premolt" is such an ambiguous term. It kind of reads like an existentialist debate: "what exactly is premolt?"The premolt starts a long time before the darkening
so your saying it looks like its going to molt im just asking because ive never seen a t's knees go shinny and bald and there has been liquid cooming out of the joints like i said never seen it before concerndWhat is premoilt, if I may ask.
The moment they eat the last prey to the moment they molt?
That could be 4 months or even more (with Theraphosa)
So yes, it could be in premolt...Or not at all.
The clear sign of inminent molt? Darkening of the skin.
