Recently I realized that my tarantula had white under it spinnerets and on them. I would like to clarify whether this is normal fecal matter or something I should be worried about such as constipation. She went for a long period without eating and recently started eating again. If you can not see the white in the photos please let me know and I will try to take better ones. Is this normal or something I should be worried about. She is my first tarantula so I may be over thinking it, but I would like to clarify for both her sake and mine. Thank you so much :)

Photos aren't clear enough to see what you mean. What you are talking about is called impaction if you want to search that and see if it can give you answers.
