As Ghost stated they do tend to have mood swings and periodically will fast for many months. Keep her/his substrate very dry and the water dish full. I have 2 G. rosea and 5 G. porteri, my enclosures are similar to yours but have some silk leaves and spagham moss for them to move around. [emoji3]  The A. geniculata is a good choice for your next T, mine will eat everyday if I fed them. Just about any T in the Grammostola, Brachypelma or Aphonopelma genus are good for a person new to the hobby. Its an addictive hobby and you'll soon be buying more and more and...........  Happy T'ing.</blockquote>
