    I feel that now I know he will eat that he has a good chance of making it (as long as I don't screw something up), so thank you for helping me get through this first stage.

    Next up: me freaking out about him molting!!

    how often do the molt?? (my friend was actually asking me this, and I didn't know what to tell him)
    As a general rule, it correlates with how often you feed. Could be every six weeks, could be one a year. There's always exceptions though. I have an Avic avic that's molted only three times in a year. I have an Aphonopelma hentzi that molts twice a year. I have Psalmos that molt monthly.

    Premolt can last just days up to months, and they won't eat. Usually. I've had some eat the day before molting.

    My versi molted about once every two to three months. That was with being fed 2 to 3 times a month.
