choca gold knee eating problems

[Quintin van Deventer]

My choca has molted about 3 weeks ago and is not eating to today. Ive been overing adult crickets and turkish rouches and she is not interested. Any advice please?

I kept quite a few spiders and they often didn't eat before and after molting and i'm talking weeks at a time just keep trying

Sounds like it is already quite big if you are feeding adult crickets.
Do you have any pictures of the spider now that it has moulted (Has it been sexed - Males often don't eat much after maturing)
And pictures of the enclosure?
Best would be to provide it with a waterbowl if you haven't already so that it can keep its hydration up if needed.

As Ceratogyrus has said keep it hydrated & it should be fine. I have had Rosies go for up to 6 months not eating at all and then suddenly start again with no problems to there health as far as I can see. Still in my collection a couple of years later.

Hi sorry for not responding sooner. She is a fair size about 10-12cm. Im suspecting it is a female have not had it sexed yet. Will post some pic soon. Thanx for the advice guys.
