Worried..is she okay? 😟

Hi guys, I have a Regal Florida who I presume is in moult. I have no clue on current Instar as it wasn't advertised to us when we got her.

The other 4 beauties I have, all had successful moults so far.. but I'm worried about this one. I haven't seen her for about 3 days now.. she's made a thick hammock in her cocoon which makes it impossible to see inside.

She was really active and inquisitive (such a darling really) before this period of her being away

My partner says she'll be fine and not to worry but I miss her and I really hope she's okay.

I've uploaded a pic of her hammock and what she looks like before hiding

Awwww what a cutie! My regal spent over a week in her hammock the last time she molted. Seems to be the bigger they get, the longer they'll spend in premolt, molting, and hardening up. I know it's hard not to worry but it's definitely not out of the ordinary

Looks fine to me. My Ellie refused food for a few days prior to molting. She even bit a mealworm, but didn't eat it. Came out super-skinny afterwards, buy you need to wait a couple days before offering food. Throw a couple large fruit flies (D. hydei) in there to gauge willingness to eat.

Update!
She poked her face out to say hello!
Not out properly just yet! But I'm so happy she's okay!

Thanks for keeping me sane guys 🥹
