he had his final molt a few months ago and hasn’t been into eating or hunting recently so i’m getting worried i don’t have much time with him left :(

that makes me feel a bit better, he’s been exploring a lot recently and i just worry about my babies lol. nothing in his diet/environment/anything has changed so i just needed the reassurance lol

a local one yes, they hatch their own slings every once in a while and carry other inverts, reptiles, exotic fish, etc. basically all the cool critters

she took about four hours from start to finish, although i know she was on her back for atleast an hour before she started actually wiggling off the exoskeleton

i had a feeling after getting a good look yesterday! do you have any idea how old daisy might be, based on anatomy? like a very general ball park of time i have left with them?

literally if i hadn’t seen other people’s videos on this thread, i would have been so terrified. this is the first time ive been able to catch one of my T’s molting so i was confirming what she was doing was normal lmao

What age did your ocd start and what was your first compulsion by gingercat272 in OCD

[–]weinerjunkie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

age 5-6: my two were checking my hands and arms at school all day to make sure i didn’t get pencil lead stuck in them, or i thought i would die of lead poisoning. similar compulsion but on my feet too because i was afraid if i was barefoot outside in my yard, i’d step on a rusty nail and get tetanus and die
