So tonight my wife (curiousme) and I get home, I come in first; and the first thing I do is peep down our pet-hole Oblivion's (Haplopelma sp. "vietnam", we think) burrow. I am quite shocked to see an eggsac!!!!!!:clap: Which makes sense now. For the past month, give or take a week, we haven't seen her at all. Normally she would sit at the top of her burrow (it goes straight down) almost every night. I figured she was molting, and was in fact checking for that when I looked. She hasn't molted yet in our care, but she is WC and we got her in early December. What do you think the chances are of it being fertile?
Earlier today, I was doing some routine maintenance on the plants in her tank (at least that gives you something to do with a pet hole LOL) and since we haven't seen her in a while, and she hasn't been drinking, and I hoped she was molting, I added some moisture down her burrow via dripping a very small amount of water a few drops at a time down a small tube that extends to the bottom of the tank, that I put there for that reason. I know now that she's moved up to keep the sac dry and I wish I wouldn't have humidified, but I had no idea, and it was minimal anyway. At least now I know what's been up.
Now my question is...what's next? We've read that if you're going to pull the sac, you should do it 30-40 days after she made it, but we don't really know when she made it. If she made it after she first went into seclusion, then its already been around a month. We tried candling it through the side of the glass, but couldn't tell what was going on.
