I have a Aphonopelma chalcodes also known as a Arizona blonde and bought her about 10 months ago she is three inches and has never melted since I’ve gotten her. She has had the bald spot indicating a moly for as long as I’ve had her. She seems to eat though not all the time and never in front of...

So I have a Aphonopelma chalcodes ive has her almost six monthes she is about 3 inches. She hasn’t eaten for a month and I’ve never seen her molt I thought she wasn’t eating because she was going to molt but she hasn’t burrowed or anything in fact she’s more active then ever she’s always out...
