I knew A. Chalcodes grew very slow, but my juvie has not molted in over a year, I have had a GBB and T. Albo reach maturity in this span of time XD

A year plus between molts sounds about spot on. My female fully matured in about 10 years (sexually matured in 7 years). Her sack mate brother matured in 7 years and passed at 9 years old.

I have 2 A jonniecashi. One is a sling & that molted for the first time since 2020 a few days ago & my adult female. Which I brought here in 2020, is yet to molt, although she has been on her back for the past 36 hours.
