Hello all,
Here I am yet again with more questions. Firstly, my p. Irminia has "sealed off" her hide from both sides and it has been this way for I want to say 3 weeks now, therefore I haven't fed it since I do not want to rip open the "seal". I assumed this might be her way of telling me she is in premolt and to stop feeding her as she's prepping. My question, however, is how long can they remain sealed off before they molt? Did she perhaps erroneously seal herself and is in fact very hungry? Should I try and put a roach in there or would this be invasive?
My OBT has done nothing but sit in her corner, I tried putting a roach to her hide the other day and she did nothing but be angry and give me a threat posture. In fact, I checked today and she sealed webbed up the place that I put the roach in. Yes I removed the roach as she was a female that looked pregnant as all hell and I didn't want any more babies, not to mention I was attempting a tong feed since I don't want a chance of the roach burrowing away. She hasn't eating in close to a month now tho... She never goes for the roach even when prekilled. Is this normal? Or should I be worried/try a different feeder?
Here's the best pic I could get of her "seal"
