i keep the humidity good and keep them on room temp, but in around 2 months they have not molted, they are around 4/5 cm and are not laying eggs

Why are they not molting, someone is waiting for the eggs so i want them to become adult

Your temperature might be the problem, considering your country. Try to get a heat lamp or, if already installed, try to mist the enclosure daily

Try to get the temperature in their enclosure the same or near to 25C

Me too. Late to the game but I have 8 black beauties. 7 are growing normally but one is still the same size as when it hatched 4 months later.
