Hi,

I have heard that for some species even as adults they may not be seen for months. However I wondered if this is normal for the Tapinauchenius genus?

I haven't seen Matilda for around 4 1/2 weeks. She stopped eating so I think she is in pre-moult/moulting. I have taken all roaches out of her enclosure. Before this she would usually sit at the entrance to her hide. I have included a picture of her before she disappeared. The cork bark tube is where she has webbed up so I assume she is in there.
