I’ve had Mittens since she(?) was a .5-.75” sling, and after 3 years, she’s only around 2.75.” Otherwise she seems healthy, takes prey down fast and furious, and has a pretty great little web treehouse.
She’s in a 4" x 4" x 7-1/4" AMAC enclosure with coco fiber on the bottom with a bottle cap water dish, plenty of fake plants at the top and lots of ventilation. I’m in the SF Bay Area so temps are generally mild year round - my apartment stays around 68F in the winter and whatever it is outside in the summer (usually 70s). I don’t power feed, I usually just try to keep her abdomen just a bit bigger than her cephalothorax.
At this point, I’m assuming female as the males grow so much faster - but even for a female, this seems REALLY slow. Should I be worried or modify husbandry? Or is she just on the slower range of normal?
