Hi Guys
Hoping someone can shed some light on a behaviour I've just observed from my G.Rosea. I'll describe what I initially thought was her getting ready to molt and why I no longer suspect this is the case. She was observed on her back as if ready to molt but instead of being on top of her web to she had covered herself up to her abdomen with a fine layer of web, it literally looked like she had made a blanket to tuck her self into. She also was moving her pedipalps and I could see her breathing. Thinking nothing of this and shrugging it off has just a weird pre molt behaviour I have come back to find her up right and out of her web blanket as if nothing had happened. Further to this it has occurred to me she only ate yesterday and this is not right for pre molt behaviour as well. Does anyone have any idea what this behaviour was?
Cheers in advance
