thats also trueI'm pretty sure that's just its urticating hair patch. Probably laid a bunch of it down on its nice web mat it has there.
Pre-molt wouldn't look like a beige spot, it would be blackish, like this from my B. smithi:has it molted recently? cuz it might be a possibility its a molt scar or its in pre-molt and it has a unique bold spot
A bald spot is not an indicator of pre molt. When in pre molt the entire abdomen will darken and a bald patch will make that easier to notice (as shown in Storms pic), but the bald spot itself is NOT an indicator of pre molt. A bald patch comes with the territory with (most) NWs, they kick hairs/rub them off, wear and tear between molts etc.has it molted recently? cuz it might be a possibility its a molt scar or its in pre-molt and it has a unique bold spot
You've had the spider for that long and have never before noticed a bald spot on the abdomen where it brushed off urticating hairs?I ve had him since he was the size of a dime,wouldnt want anything to be wrong with it.
Correct<he has NEVER been that way before. none of my spiders have ever had "bald spots"You've had the spider for that long and have never before noticed a bald spot on the abdomen where it brushed off urticating hairs?
They may not have ears,but they do feel vibration,and sometimes when he does play to loud,they will start marching and climbing,when he stops they go back to be calm.fyi tarantulas dont have ears... if your husband played DRUMS the t would probably notice/be distrubed, but i doubt a guitar being played in A SEPARATE room would bother it
You never know how keen their vibration sense itfyi tarantulas dont have ears... if your husband played DRUMS the t would probably notice/be distrubed, but i doubt a guitar being played in A SEPARATE room would bother it
I can't be fully sure, but it does look like a mature male to me going by its legginess.I guess I'll ask again.... Is it a mature male?
