My E trigo has not eaten in about 2 months, although it is nice and fat and i haven't been worried about it. It usually spends its days under the water bowl and comes out to roam at night. The past two days its been spending just sitting in the middle of the enclosure. I was a bit worried because the last time i seen this behavior was with my S subspinipes that died shortly after, so i blew on it and it swiftly ran under the water bowl for cover, but its back out in that same spot. Could this be molting behavior? If so how long does it usually take so i can snap some pictures.

That doesn't necessarily sound like it's pre-molt... there would be other physical signs, bloated appearance, dulling of color, extended head-plate.
