Is my T getting ready to molt or is she dying was created by Sue-Ann
My T has been staying on the ground for the last day or so and not sitting on the glass as she normally does. I just went to look at her now and she is flat on her back. She hasnt been eating for a few days now and is hydrated. Must I start to worry?

Moulting.
Just make sure there is a water bowl present to ensure decent humidity

Is it finished molting yet? Very exciting to watch and it NEVER gets old. Please remember to not disturb the T for a few days post molt and be sure not to try feed it until its fangs have darkened and solidified.

Post some pics of his/her new suite!! :)

When it comes to moulting, "internal humidity" is much more important, so as long as the spider is hydrated before the moult, it should be fine.
A water bowl is a good idea for the spider to re-hydrate after a moult though.
