[QUOTE="Lentulus, post: 222194, member: 34044"] It’s perfectly normal for them not to eat. Could be stress from the new enclosure, could be getting ready to molt. Preparing to molt, they will often hide and even close up to hole for privacy. Just make sure water is available and keep removing bugs that aren’t eaten. If it molts, give it a week or two before attempting to feed again. FYI, some of my slow growers have gone a year without food. A couple of weeks is nothing. Keep em hydrated and the situation will likely solve itself. ;) [/QUOTE]
