So my blue has taken quite sometime to adapt to her new home. In all honestly partly my bad in getting all the conditions right. Anyway, I came home today to see she burrowed 8 inches down to the bottom of her enclosure. So thinking she finally made her self at home I tried feeding her again. She hasn't taken in any food for 4-5 weeks. I came home tonight to see her at the the top of her burrow but shiny black. Then i saw the exoskeleton. To my horror she molted today and had provided crickets. I plucked 3 but I think I had given 4. I can not see any in the burrow just the exoskeleton and her. What do I do? What if anything can I do? Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

I agree leave her alone she will eventually settle in i would'nt throw 4 crickets in at a time just let her web her burrow.

How bout a pic Red Devil? After it hardens up of course. I'm curious if I was wrong about it being male. It sure looked like one..
