Hey guys!

does this look like premolt? I’m worried cause she hasn’t eaten in a while and her bum is pretty bare, I’m also concerned cause I broke up with my boyfriend and I think he might have done something to her if it’s not premolt

 

[Mbranconnier]

I would assume she kicked hairs or is in early stages of pre molt. Is she active normal otherwise and doing what tarantulas do?

no she’s not active, she barley kicks hairs anymore and she literally acts like she’s dying she barley moves and normally shes very active!

 

[mantisfan101]

Are her legs curled under? Ts aren’t really active by any means. Also she seems really plump so I doubt that she’ll eat in a while or until she molts.

I would say she is either in pre molt, has kicked hairs or has a full belly.

She’s usually really really active but she won’t move at all and her legs are curled all the way on top of her and when I did get her to move it was like she was dead she just toppled back over

Seems like a reeeeaaaally small enclosure for it....does it have deep, damp substrate and a water dish?

yeah it is a small enclosure, I’m in the process of rehousing right now to a 3 ft tank.. she has plenty of moisture and enough substrate to get her til tomorrow and she’s got a water dish

I’m wondering if she’s dehydrated??

What does "hasn't eaten in a while" mean? How many days, weeks, months?
To me, she looks pretty healthy, maybe she's stressed because of that tiny enclosure and kicked hairs, but otherwise, she seems okay. I would get the hide out, so, she has room to properly relax. And as long as there's a big enough water dish in there, I guess she'll be fine until you rehoused her.

Do you have a picture of the new tank?

 

[viper69]

There’s no way to tell from this one pic.

Besides, so what if it’s in pre-molt.......

 

[Cemykay]

She doesn´t look bad besides being really plump
When did you feed her?

 

[Asgiliath]

Fat spider been licking hairs. That's it

Sounds a bit weird, but hey, even tarantulas can have a fetish.

OOPS I'm not even gonna edit it lmao

 

[Twantula1215]

How are the legs curled? When is the last time she ate? How big is she? What species? How old?
Any more pictures?

We need more information.

 

[The Grym Reaper]

Just a fat tarantula that's kicked itself bald. Possibly early pre-moult at most.

It saddens me to see a large Theraphosa kept in such a small enclosure, heck my dubai roaches have more room and they are feeders.

 

[Kasshole]

Shes a T strimi, her legs are curled up over the top of her, she hasn’t ate in about a week, someone said she might be dehydrated?

Well if you read my other comments you would have seen that I’m rehousing her so before you judge how about reading?

You mean, her legs are up around covering her "face"? That's a stress pose.

She doesn't look dehydrated in the pictures. Very plump and not a partial death curl. Why would you think she's dehydrated?
