Default GBB sling advice please

Im asking on behalf of my mum. Her gbb sling molted 10 days go, so should it be ok to try and feed her now? Shes walking round and making web etc. Seems quite happy.
I tried mine when it had beenjust over a week from molting and she didnt eat it, tried again just after two weeks and she did. Mys siters however ate about a week after eating, I think. So I know they are all different, but all of ours re the same size...id say between an inch and abit and two inches. Its hard to tell.
She was worried that she wouldnt be hardened up enough on the fangs and if she went for it she could damage her fangs.

5 days is enough for a sling. They harden quicker than adults

Easiest way is to have a look at the fangs, if they've darkened its good to go.
