If a tarantula is stuck in its molt, how long should you wait to help it?
I found my new A. minatrix molting an hour ago, and it hasnt made any progress. It is in an awkward position between its fake flower and the container wall, and doesnt seen to have enough room to molt. Ive just been watching and waiting, but my other avics usually take about 15 minutes to finish molting and its been an hour so now im starting to worry a bit. He has one leg out and his body/fangs seem to be out, but thats it. The other 7 legs and pedipalps are still in the molt.

My A. Minatrix I got last week is molting. It had hardly webbed at all and decided to molt on...
