Is this the scared pose where Tarantula's protect themselves with their front legs?

Looks like she's just chillin'.
I gave her another hide and just left it in there because it was a bit too big and she switched over to this one so, figured two options were better than one so hopefully it's more comfortable here.

My G. Pulchra has been in pre-molt for weeks or at least I think so, she has still been eating but has completely stopped exploring even at night time pretty much entirely. Idk if something is wrong or if they also mostly stop coming out at night when in pre-molt. I know they are supposed to stop eating during this time, but I also read they sometimes still eat.

How does her abdomen look? Fat and dark? Or fat with a "pale" patch on it?
