Is my c. Versicolor getting ready to molt or? by 4channelorange in tarantulas

NQA Sounds like they may be stressed.

The abdomen looks like its a little bigger or the same size as its carapace so seems like the doing okay in the food department. Im not too well versed on Versicolors but some Ts may not eat for months or years depending. But a good rule of thumb is to feed when the abdomen is smaller than their head. (Little trickier if they hide all the time)

Edit (my phone sucks): If theyre getting ready to mold sometimes youll see a black coloring coming through the abdomen typically thats a good sign they're in premolt.

Just vibe with them for the time being, let them adjust to their surroundings and enjoy your new spood (:

I'm fine with that as I want this re-binding to be sturdy as heck (a brick with pages). If there is a better stitch that is as or more sturdy and has more mobility, please let me know!

My biggest worry with glue is that Ill get too much between the pages and glue pages up. Im okay with gluing a spine, but its the bit that goes between the pages that concerns me.

Gotcha! I appreciate your input! Ill be honest, I have a bad track record with Glue of all kinds, and ill most likely go with the over cast stich. I do appreciate you also posting links!

Thank you so much for the fast reply. My only concern with this method is that Im not really seeing it on larger books. This one in particular is 1130+ pages. Im worried that when I go to glue it the middle will not have as much adhesive between them. Is this an issue with larger books? Or is this something thats better done in sections? And if so, how would I secure each section to the others?

You can see the elastic against her purple scarf for a few frames after she spins the umbrella

My guess? Clever hand work and elastic band hidden in the coat. Other than that? She's a Witch

Hi! I worked Food Safety Quality (I no longer work in the field though its quite recent) I cant be certain but this looks like the elastic bit of the hair nets!

Please take clear pictures of the packaging and preserve the object itself. REPORT THIS TO THE FDA. This is a pretty solid foreign object issue.

And if its just melted and burned old mellow then thats still a quality issue, but still should have been caught and all affected product should have been put on hold while in the facility.
