Hi, I am new here, my name is Kristen and I bought a pink-toed tarantula on my birthday, June 9th! I was wondering if she is about to molt because she is not eating! Normally she eats a cricket as soon as or soon after I release the cricket in her enclosure...however she has left the cricket alone this time for 3 or 4 days. I just wondered if there may be a problem because it has been a week or two before I fed her the cricket I put in! So if she is not molting what could the reason be?
Thank you for your help! =)
P.S. The enclosure is getting a bit dirty so I'm gonna clean it soon, but I wondered if that effected her eating habits at all?
