Hello.
I have an Avicularia avicularia and Ive had it since it was a sling, 3 years ago. It has been doing fine until a couple of months ago when it started to be lethargic and staying on the ground and when it tries to climb it slides back down, even on the bark. It has a small abdomen due to not eating properly, it used to feed no problem but lately its only had two waxworms in a couple of months, it wont eat anything else.
Its now curled up on the ground and having problems walking.
I had another Avic before this one and it was juvenile when I bought it. It did the same thing.
Can anyone help me to understand whats wrong with it?
I have 7 other T's and they are all doing really well.
There is one that I have, which was sold to me as Vitalius roseus (Giant pink starburst) but there is no way its giant,lol. I bought it at the same time as my Lasiodora klugi and they were both about 1" and now 3 years later, the L klugi is huge, like my other one (about 6") and the V roseus has only doubled its size, about 2" - 2 1/2". which is making me think its not V roseus.
I think my friend, who I bought it from, was told a fib when he bought it,lol.
I'm gettin a new camera in a few days so I'll put a pic up to see if anyone can identify it.
Thanks. Badger.
