We just got home from baseball and when I went to water her I noticed she’s missing a ton of legs and her pedipalps?! There’s nothing in her enclosure she could have gotten tangled on except maybe the webbing but that’s glued down tightly and I didn’t see her legs there…More concerning, is this ab separation?! I’m freaking out. Please tell me it’s just how she’s pulling herself along now that she’s missing her freaking legs?! wtf my kid is going to be devastatedddd in the am 😭 Is there anything I can do aside from moving her to smaller enclosure, which I did immediately?? TIA.

ETA: I’m pretty sure she was going into premolt (based on previous behavior) so she hadn’t been out of her hammock in about a week and hasn’t eaten since that time.

As the title says…why is she leaning to the side like that? We’ve had her about 5 days now. Not interested in food yet but the sideways lean she keeps doing seems strange to me? I haven’t seen it in any of the educational videos we watched thus far. Thanks in advance for any input!
