I have a Chilean Rose Tarantula, promptly named Rose. She molted about a week and a half ago, before her molt she would roam all around her enclosure on the warm side, and now after her molt she’s been holed up in her burrow, then at one point she also started blocking the entrance to her burrow with webs. I’ve never seen her act like this, granted she has not molted in quite a number of years, I think she’s around 12-13 years old, I’ve had her for about 8-9.
I do have a theory that because she molted she is much more sensitive to light, being nocturnal she’s already sensitive to light, but even at night I haven’t seen her come out. I fed her a few days after she molted, she’s eaten all the crickets I put in there, but I really can’t tell if anything else is wrong. Any advice is welcome and I’m open to all ideas.
