Hello,
Last summer around the end of august, I was camping and found a very small tarantula in the campground bathroom, which was missing two legs. I took him home and have had him until now. My goal was to release him where I found him this summer. He often avoids his food (meal worms and crickets) and has not molted since I have had him. I thought I’d be helping the little guy by providing a safe space for him to re grow and was not expecting him to take this long to molt. Should I release him sooner? Is it too late?
