@AmberDawnDays mine's the same size. Unfortunately it seems that it is a male. He hasn't come out of his burrow since his molt on July 21st but for a brief moment. He ran back into the burrow and I tried to lure him back out with a superworm, but it friggin ran into the burrow and he killed it in there and i missed the first takedown after the molt no more food till he comes back out
@Moakmeister I have a Brachypelma Vagans that molted and grew from 2" to 4" and I fed it a horn worm for its first meal after the molt because she was so skinny post molt. It took her 2 days to eat the horn worm and then she immediately burrowed away. The next time I fed her she killed the cricket and dumped it in her water dish, but I never saw her do any of it. I decided not to feed her until she came out if her hole. She stayed down there for almost 2 months and molted again! I swear she barely grew between the two molts. So between the two molts she only ate one hornworm and was burrowed away the whole time. I'm never feeding her a hornworm again. I haven't tried superworms though.
@crone How big is your T? Male or female? I'm always curious about how they grow and whether it's the same rate or different rates when they are sac mates.
@AmberDawnDays yeah im gonna go back to mealworms. The superworms i bought are acting really weird and most of them have died anyway. I don't know what i did.
Also, about the water dish thing, and im sure @crone would love to hear this, Rex doesn't bury it if it's not in the corner. I put the dish in the middle of the wall and he hasn't messed with it in months. It's not because he's always in his burrow either, because before his molt he was always out.
