She needs to molt again....ideally you should put enough entire molt cycle between pairings....so I would wait for it to molt twice.

i have a few questions:

1. if i paired her when she didnt molt, will she just molt out of it and not be gravid?
2. would it take too long for her to molt considering she needs to eat first?
3. what if she takes a final molt or too old to molt? can i never pair her again?
