She hasn't eaten since I got her like 2 and a half months ago maybe and the other day she started laying down a web bed. When I checked on her before I went to bed she was webbing I got up this morning and she was on her back. I had to go help my brother do some painting and was worried all day. I got home to find that she came out of her molt. She definitely looks bigger and beautiful.

Lucky you. I've only had 2 of my Ts molt since they've been with me. My B. Boehmei, but I couldn't see much as it was inside it's burrow and my Genic, which was exiting and worrying at the same time.
I've got a few which I think are in premolt: My GBB sling is quite round and shiny and has not eaten in a while, my B. Boehmei sling hasn't eaten in a month, is hiding and is also round and shiny and my A. Versi is also not very interested in food and has sealed itself inside its web tube.
My G. Rosea, however shows no signs of wanting to molt. She occasionally goes off her food for a few months (usually after I tell people she's eating again, lol), but other than that nothing, lol. Mind you she's not a baby anymore so will slow down in growth.

Does anyone know how long it takes for them to get back to normal after a molt I know that waiting a while to feed but right now she is just kind of laying there she moves every once in awhile but was just curious. Thanks
