[QUOTE="timc, post: 52041, member: 4054"] ok so I do already have my own system for this but I figure this community is here for the very reason to share experience. Anyhow after a molt I wait a week to ten days before the first feeding, usually a medium size meal, and another week or so later I get them back on the regular schedule, this time a much larger meal, enough to fatten them up a bit. I find this usually gets them a little less feisty for the next day. Generally I do my rehousing in the afternoon when the spiders aren't quite so active but I don't think it makes too much difference, when they're up they're up. So that's my 14-18 day routine. I'd love to hear the methods of others and maybe get some new ideas on the best ways that have worked well. [/QUOTE]
