Not usually. She webbed a lot this time because she laid down a molting mat. It's like a hammock to support her softly while molting.

It's out! How long before it's legs get rigid and it starts moving around normally? Just a bit concerned. Nerve wracking watching it all. Haha.

For slings it happens a lot faster but it takes longer for adults to harden up. Don't offer food for a week or so. Make sure her fangs are black again

Just gonna watch it for now, give it a roach this time next week. Gorgeous copper color to it's head, even before the molt and especially now after.

So what part of the molt do I take a picture of to see if it's male or female? I'm thinking male, because it's so leggy.

Just let it be. At that size give it 10-12 days before feeding. Of if you see that the fangs are a really dark black, should be ok.

You will want to look inside the abdomen area. You'll see 4 book lungs. Look in the area between the first set of book lungs. The set closer toward the fangs.

If I ever get a free moment.

Just re-decorated my G.Rosea "Boots" Cage.
