Guess the real question here is if there is cause for concern when a freshly moulted T isn't feeding right away. Had a T moult recently (~3.5'' DLS) but stay in their burrow for quite some time afterwards (as far as I could tell). No waiting at burrow entrance or similar "hunting" behaviour. After 5 weeks I dropped in a cricket and the T didn't even seem interested, which struck me as odd. The cricket walked about the burrow unscathed. The T took the cricket at some point during the night though ^^

Looks like there is no immediate urgency to get a T feeding as fast as possible after a moult.
