Hi,
I have Curly Hair which was purchased as a juvenile female at the BTS show in Birmingham last May. It has just moulted and is obviously a male due to the front spurs or hooks on its legs, and broader pedipalps (quite a change from it's previous form!)
My question is this - is it now a mature male, and if so how long does it have to live? This spider is a pet and my son may get quite upset, as we were told it was a female. By the way, it has a ravenous appetite - is this normal for Curly Hair's?
Many thanks,
Mark
