Hello again!...around 8 days ago,I got a female Mexican fireleg (Brachypelma boehmei). She's eaten two appropriately sized mealworms 2-3 days ago,a day after that,her abdomen got visibly bigger but went back to normal after.
Over today and yesterday,her bald spot became more obvious,and her abdomen is darkening.
No other significant behavior changes that I've noticed except her being maybe a little bit more jitterish? I haven't offered food,and she's drunk water.
Could this be pre molt? Is something wrong with her? 🙁
She's my first tarantula and is about a year old.

thank you so much for answering!! this was very informative!! i do have another question about another species i cant identify if you have time to answer??
i see these tiny little brown spiders on the ground/in the garden every now and again, no bigger than a nickle Id say, and im just wondering what they might be/if theyre friendly or if i should avoid them? theyre a light brown almost beige colour and look smooth (at least to me) with a bigger round circular abdomen that looks like it sits ontop towards the back of their mid section rather than behind them parallel to the ground.
i havent been able to take a photo cuz i havent seen any lately and even if i did my back camera is broken right now. i dont know what to google to give a reference image so im hoping my description is well enough! i live in Southern ONT Canada if that also helps to ID the species :)
i want to learn a little more about these guys in particular bc i have a lawn care/gardening job and i cant be freaking out every time i see an unknown spider in their natural home haha!!
thank you again for answering my question about trap door spiders i really enjoyed your explication!
