[QUOTE="kormath, post: 120794, member: 4199"] my son's verisicolor wouldn't eat anything that was larger than her abdomen, she'd do the same yours has been, slap it or bite it and leave it to die. Premolt depends on their size, at 3/4", if i remember right, she'd fast for about 3 weeks or so before molting. I agree with [USER=7681]@Metalman2004[/USER] your enclosure is much to large for that size. That would fit an adult versi well though. At her size we used one of the tall amac boxes - [URL]https://www.containerstore.com/s/clear-amac-boxes/d?productId=10003497&q=amac[/URL] The 4" sq x 7.25" tall one. That should fit them until they're about 3 inches dls. Flip it upside down so the lid holds the substrate, drill lots of ventilation holes on opposite sides, make sure a branch or leaf or something extends down to the substrate so the prey can climb up to her.
