M. Balfouri refusing to eat after molting

[Julespooks]

I got my M balfouri juvenile about a month ago. I decided to rehouse it as soon as it got home. It refused to eat for the whole time and realized it molted 2 weeks after getting it. But now it's been another two weeks and it completely blocked off its enclosure, still refusing to eat. I can't check if it's getting skinnier since it's always hidden. Is there anything I can do? I'm getting a bit worried.

I think I made it too stressed

Best thing you can do is leave it alone, tarantulas do get stressed if you keep bothering them - that's why they block themselves off its there way of telling us to leave them alone
It will be fine just make sure it has a dish full of water it will come out when it's ready, they can go for long periods of time without food and it causes them no harm

I end up checking on it every few days but I guess I'll just have to leave it alone for longer, thank you
