As the title suggests, my Damon boy Merlin hasn't eaten for over 6 weeks, likely even more than that. Hygrometer shows a consistent 80% and above, temperature is room temperature. I've considered premolt, and I know it can take a while but it's taken a really long time now and I'm starting to get worried. Attached images, does he look to be in premolt? I've also been worried that his enclosure doesn't have enough room for him to molt, but it shouldn't really be an issue. There are airholes in the top of his enclosure he can climb up to to hang upside down, but perhaps it just doesn't occur to him. Another possibility is prey sizing issue, I feed him adult Dubias and they are quite large, but so is he, and from what I've read it shouldn't be an issue, especially since he's taken them before. I've tried pre killing them as well, didn't work. He seems to be skittish around them. Alternatively he's simply not hungry? Last time I saw him eat he got blown up like a balloon, his abdomen about doubled in size. Any advice is very much appreciated, I love my little guy.
