My sub-adult male hasn't molted into his adult stage. Is it normal for a male to go for more than a year without molting into his adult form? I am wanting to breed him, but he isn't cooperating. Would increasing the temperature or feeding more help him grow faster?

brachypelma can definitely be slow.
