Hey! My P.Irminia baby just molted (2nd molt) almost 2 days ago... she's at her entrance waiting for food, and when I misted her enclosure, she jumped out and scared the ever lovin life outta me. SHE says she's ready to eat, but I don't want to risk injury. What do you suggest for waiting and what insect? She's about an inch in diameter. Thanks for your advice!
