Lp moulting/feeding is this normal?

[Adam20202]

Hey guys, just a quick one.. I know lp's are massive eaters etc.... And she's moulted been about 3week now and she still hasn't ate anything since her moult... Is this normal or normal in a lp? My others always gulp food right up a week after a moult.. Thanks guys

You're going to need to be more specific. Is this an adult you're talking about, how big is it, what are you trying to feed it? If it's a very large adult, it may just need another week.

Not yet fully grown, still got quite a way maybe just a juvie or bit bigger 100% female though... And just a cricket not to big not to small.

She will eat when she is ready

My LP has acted like a rosea at times, fasting and being a bump in general. She is healthy and growing well. As always, provide water and if her abdomen is plump, shes ok.

Mine took a little over two weeks before she ate. Before she shed she didn't eat for a month. She's at 6 inches now and eating well.

Oddly enough it's generally my most food motivated tarantulas that take the longest to start hunting again after a molt. Never made any sense to me. My G. pulchripes is ready for food in four days while my Pampho will wait two weeks or more.
