Ethmostigmus rubripes not eating at all no matter what I offer it

[patrick nimbs]

Hi all,
I recently got a tiger form ethmostigmus rubripes tiger form juvenile and it is not eating a thing. I’ve offered it crickets, roaches, grubs etc… and it tends to run away from the prey items and refusing to eat them. The pede is about 8cm (excluding terminal legs) and very skittish. It is not in premoult by the way as it’s not displaying any symptoms. Does anyone know what might be going on? Thanks

Did you end up getting your pede to eat?

Yes. Turns out she was in premoult and successfully moulted 10 days later! She eats pretty much anything that’s in her enclosure!! Here’s a picture of her dining on a cricket:
