Is this normal?

I got a GBB on Wednesday, and up until now she has not eaten anything. Yesterday she did a web at the very top of the enclosure and with the two sides on the same wall of the enclosure, and kind of suspended herself on it. Anyone can tell me if this is normal or if something is wrong?

Sounds normal to me! Sometimes it takes them awhile to settle in and start eating, give her a week and try feeding again :)

I don't any own any GBB, but from my understanding is they are huge webbers, so it sounds like she is settle in her new enclosure. also it could be a molting mat, how big is her abdomen? I have had few off the ground molts.

Yeah, been told it could be a molting mat, although since she has not eaten in a couple of days I was not sure she could/would. I think her abdomen is normal size, although this is my first sling so I do not know if is normal size or not.
