[QUOTE="Oursapoil, post: 200682, member: 33266"] What are you using to feed her if you do not mind me asking? It might be interesting to offer her something soft and cut in half that you would at least leave overnight. A. chalcodes have a slow growth and mine goes sometimes many months without eating while staying plump but yours appearance is concerning, especially the wrinkles on her abdomen. As [USER=37688]@regalspottedbeast[/USER] mentioned, I thought about dehydration first but with her sucking stomach intact on her molt it is no longer likely. Please try the "soft" prey cut in half and let us know, if it doesn't work I would leave her alone a whole week without disturbance to avoid the stress before trying to offer her food again. [/QUOTE]
