Well I'm back again, and this time it's my beloved brazilian white knee. Recently, like yesterday I found a portion of her poop outside her hide lightly fuzzed in mold, I removed it fcourse but there is a problem, there is a hell of alot more poop in her hide and when I took a look today ( Hide is a jar I put against the glass so I can always see what my T's are doing, I put moss over the top of it to keep it dark so the T is unknowing of herself being watched. ) and there is more poop in the back, lightly fuzzed. I'd go and get it with a chop stick but she's very protective of her hide.


What do I do? :O!

If you are seeing that much mold sounds like it is time for a substrate change to me and try to add some more ventilation the the enclosure.

just time to rehouse it ...

Are you sure its poo ? because i've observed many time with my Acanthoscuria geniculata that it VOMITS a white liquid that looks a lot like poo, it seem'S to be not dangerous for the Ts... Just weird and something I did'nt explain yet

I would just clean it out and keep the humidity lower in the future. Spider poop usually dries pretty fast so I would imagine the environment would have to be fairly moist for it to grow mold.
