Message: <blockquote data-quote="AdamG" data-source="post: 188160" data-attributes="member: 34940">Hi everyone,Just wanted a bit of friendly advice and reassurance as I've not had this species long. I have a female (sub adult I guess as she's around 2.5 inches) and since I received and rehoused her (around 3 weeks ago) she's ignored her hide and sort of cocooned herself in a web burrito on top of the hide. Now, I'm assuming this is standard pre-moult behaviour but I couldn't find any description of similar when researching, just the usual sealed burrow and other regular pre-moult activities.Can anyone quell my over-worrying mind and confirm that me reading this as normal pre-moult behaviour is correct?Thanks in advance all, really appreciate this place!</blockquote>
