My female Giant Asian hasn't molted yet

[Quake]

I got my first two nymphs last on Thursday and have been keeping them both at about 80 degrees F and feeding them the same amount, but the male has molted twice since he got here, and the female hasn't molted. I was told that her injury (missing leg) would make her grow slower. So would she require more food to be ready for the male come spring?

Should I feed her more, or just be patient?

just be patient. doesn't matter if you feed her moer or less.

she moults when she's ready

Males mature faster than females. That is normal. Quit worrying.
