Accidentally Interrupt A. Avic moult?

[EricaT]

Hello, this is a potentially dumb question, but I’m a newer T owner who’s still learning of these complex creatures.

I’ve had my juvenile, A. Avic, pet store-rescue for almost 2 months. I was very pleasantly surprised to awaken earlier this week and find him(?) in full-flip moult-position! (Probably not the scientific term!)
So, the location of his enclosure is very awkward, and unfortunately, he is able to pick up some of my every day life-noise. I had started getting ready for work, and I closed my makeup bag, which makes a loud click!
I immediately was concerned for Areabesque (my T), as I figured he felt the vibration, and when I went to check, he had come out of his moult entirely and was right-side-up

My question is, will he attempt a moult again? I’m worried now that he’s too anxious in his enclosure. This was about 4 days ago, and no moult-attempt since.

Thanks so much!

They're adaptable creatures, it'll molt when it's ready.

Sudden sounds happen in the wild all the time. Plus, there are tons of predators to flee from at a milliseconds notice. It should be fine. Tarantulas aren’t super delicate orchids or anything.

Thank you, @EtienneN for always being so nice about your responses, hehe.

My main concern was his lack of food intake since I’ve had him. I think he took down one small cricket around 2 months ago, but nothing since.

Anyways, I’m sure he will re-moult! Guess I just felt bad more than anything

How long it went fasting is never of any concern.....and 2 months is like you or I missing lunch to a t.

You're fine.

You’re right, I think I may be underestimating their survivability.

So basically they feel like they are STARVING!

Tarantulas would be extinct if they all died due to a purse click.

Lolol, I don’t think people are going to Brazilian and Costa Rican rainforests to do their makeup.

Think I’m babying my Avic a little more second to reading about their fragility in captivity.

You’ll need to put it in a sound proof room.
