Unfortunately lost my Lampropelma sp. Borneo Black during the cold spell a couple of weeks ago....

This was due to my own stupidity, I fed all the T's during the day and unfortunately left the Borneo's enclosure on the counter (away from the heat source). We left for the afternoon and only returned at about 21:00. I found the T in a semi-death curl and all attempts made couldn't pull it through... :igiveup:

This had to happen on the coldest f#cking day of winter as well...

Mine was kept pretty cool through winter, so strange that it would be that bad by 9 at night.
Is there no other reason hat it could have happened?

Sorry to hear I had the same thing happen to my avic avic, was away from heat source for around an hour and it died from the cold. Damn our freezing winters in sa

Are you guys sure it's the temps?
My avics are no where close to a heat source and they are thriving. Temps are around 15 degrees max.

I also am keeping my spiders in a cold room with all my avics and they are all keeping very well.

Hi Ruan,

It was fine when I fed it the afternoon. Very active. Only thing I can think of was the cold (EN DIT WAS MOER KOUD...)
