Hey everyone,
So my Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens just molted today though really badly. I’ve had it as a sling and it’s had many successful molts so I knew when something wasn’t right. After performing some surgery (with a soft wet makeup brush) it seems one side has all janked legs, the other has 4 healthy ones. I wasn’t able to get some of the molt off but I was able to separate each leg so it has some freedom to move (saying “it” because I haven’t sexed yet though I think he’s a he). I was wondering will it be able to survive if I tong feed it till next molt? Will it detach its legs on its own? Asking for advice, bless.
