  • Gutted.

    I am totally gutted, got home from work to find my 1cm A.Geniculata has moulted and with this has died, ? i think. And the worse thing is i think its totaly my fault. To dry, and the poor little thing is all hunched up, not moving and very white. I know its just moulted but, instincts tell me she has died. Feel like a total T..T. didnt think i woul;d feel so gutted about a thing the size of a pea, but there you go...!

    Sorry to hear that dude, same thing happened to me with a H Lividum sling.

    Humidity doesn't play as large a role as we think in a successful moult I'm sure, these things happen.

    Did the sling get out of the moult fully?
    All those legs and not a pair of shoes in sight... Nice tarsus tho...

        Ah, so there's hope yet!

        Give it some time, could be the sling's just catching it's breath so to speak, hopefully it'll surprise you!

        My H Lividum got stuck half way through, so no chance there then

        Good luck, keep us posted!

          I lost a A.Geniculata sling also about a month ago. It was too dry and this seems to be an issue for the Genics. My larger one moulted this week and looks fantastic, but I had made sure the humidity was higher.
