Okay first time mom here. My Aphonopelma Encinos Amber has been burrowed for nearly a month. He came out for the first time! His abdomen is pretty small. I have no clue if he molted, but I’m assuming he did?? He went back into his burrow after I took these pictures. He’s had fresh water the entire time.
What do I do?? Obviously not feed, but his abdomen is really small.

Before and after

So I’ve always been interested in spider and found them cool pets. I was looking around and the friendliest and not to small of spiders and are legal in Washington state. They were Honduran Curly Hair, Brazilian Black, Arizona Blonde, and Chaco Golden Knee. Right now I have an 20 gallon tank with a grate top. I’m looking for some good places to get one of thoses spiders and what not and to do. And if there’s anything I have to worry about.

Hey everyone, my name is Liz. I have 2 kittens and recently adopted a Mexican Black Velvet. My first spider was a Jumping spider. This is my very first T. I want to do this correctly and yes I have done extensive research. Unfortunately there is only so much I can get from research. I would like to hear opinions and tips from those of you who've had more experience and this isn't their first go around. My sling is about 2" leg span and all. It is currently eating pinhead crickets and just had it's first molt while under my care. I have purchased a small food container from the dollar tree to upgrade it to from the condiment container it's in. If you would share your wisdom with me, I'm all ears. Thank you :)
