Now comes another hard part. Feeding or a better way of saying it is not feeding Ralphie. It is unknown how long since he molted and tarantulas should not eat right after a molt, as Nurse Ratchet stated. Keep water out and try to get a look at its fangs to see if they harden black. Depending on the age/size of the T people recommend waiting up to about 10 days, less for younger ones.
