Hey guys, I have a worrywort question. I've had my first tarantula Lupe, a Chaco Golden-Knee, for about two months now. Thought it was a female until about a month ago when he molted out with tibial hooks and those big 'ol boxing gloves. He looks great, loves his terrarium, and has been the most docile, fuzzy, sweetest little booger I've ever seen... The thing is he won't eat. I know there's no interest in eating before a molt, but I waited two weeks afterwards to let his fangs get good and ready, and he's still not interested. Food walks right by him, not interested. Wiggled crickets in front of his face with feeding tongs, he just completely ignores them. He also doesn't seem to be preoccupied searching for a way out of his enclosure to find a mate, so I'm not sure what the deal is. Am I just worrying over nothing? Will he eat when he finally gets ready? I'm just really attached to the little guy and want him to be happy and healthy. Here's a picture of him a few days before his molt. I really need to take some pictures of him now with his really pretty bright yellow stripes.
