2 months and still no moult

[Lucifus]

Ok my salmon pink has mainly been refusing any food for 2 months, its taken a total of 4 small crickets in that time. Its rump is black and huge but still no moult after two months. Its only about 3/4 inchs too.

Is this normal?

She'll moult when she's ready

My Red Knee was nearly 12 weeks between moults and was only 1cm! The abdomen was MASSIVE for ages, and only ate one pinhead cricket in 7 weeks!

Yours will when it's ready, so frustrating thought isn't it?

It moulted today, its grown huge. Totally destroyed its shed though so cant sex it.....so its sitting on the fridge and im waiting to hear the screams of my arachnophobic house mate.

Grats Trashed in what way? No way you can untwist the abdomen? Wet it and it becomes plyable again.

Glad its moulted.

The rump was filled with a lot of white stick stuff and the abdomen was shredded beyond repair. Even after water was added i could see there was no way i could sex the abdomen. However i could see where the abdomen joined the main body and i couldn't see any spermicia there so its most likely male. But will have to double check next shed.
