u think that little rod above her is going to affect it any?

Subject: Re: my favorite rosie molting......scared Fri 03 Jul 2009, 10:21 am

I think she will be fine Revolt, I have seen adults molt inside hides where you would swear up and down they wouldnt have room to get it done, but they always manage.

its not the actual act of molting so much as its the few days after while the T is soft

I think she will be fine with that filter thing, it's a bit to the side, as for the walnut stuff, I think he mentioned he tried to change it in the past, but forgot what happened.

Subject: Re: my favorite rosie molting......scared Sat 04 Jul 2009, 1:04 am

yeah
i changed it in the past, but she wasnt happy at all with the dry cocoa fiber
she would stayed on the sides/lid for like 3 days, so i changed her back
and btw
she just molted this morning
i watched her
it was awesome
i took pics
she JUST finished
she is still on her back relaxing
its so cool to watch

Wow revolt! She looks great!

Subject: Re: my favorite rosie molting......scared Sat 04 Jul 2009, 3:57 am

See she knew what she was doing, she turned away from the thing, isn't this one of the T's you bred? Time ti give her a week to harden, feed heavy and try again.

Subject: Re: my favorite rosie molting......scared Sat 04 Jul 2009, 4:55 am

lol yeah
i bred her
XD darn girl decided to molt though! haha
im hopeing she will be a tad more willing now because she molted

Subject: Re: my favorite rosie molting......scared Sat 04 Jul 2009, 5:40 am

ha ha oops, didn't see Dan's post. This time you will have a better chance at getting a sac because you know she just molted, and at that size, and being a rosea, it wont happen again for a long time.

Subject: Re: my favorite rosie molting......scared Sat 04 Jul 2009, 6:51 am

Congrats revolt, fine looking girl you have there.

Subject: Re: my favorite rosie molting......scared Sun 05 Jul 2009, 5:49 am

congrats. I can't wait for my first molt! How long does it take for them to harden once again?

Subject: Re: my favorite rosie molting......scared Thu 09 Jul 2009, 1:28 am

Pretty spider! My rosea hasn't molted with me yet, I got her in Jan.

Well slings harden faster then adults, but you should give them at least a week to harden before you try feeding again, I give them all at least a week, sling or not. You have to make sure the fangs are totally black first.

They usually ignore the food if they are not ready
and if the food is ignored I usually take it out so that I dont stress the T out
