New b.smithi blocked entrance?

[Tyronne]

So I picked up a new 3cm smithi today, freshly moulted. I transferred her to the new enclosure, which included a small hide, which she inhabited shortly and about 30 min later, I found the hide entrance all barricaded. I have heard they do do this in pre-moult, but she moulted about a week ago. Should I be worried?

 

[spidey noob]

no need to worry, one of my b,smithi (2") does it all the time. just dont want to be disturbed lol

Yup my 1 inch b. smithi blocked herself in and has not come out for a month.

Both my B.Auratum and G.Pulchripes have done the same. I can see the old moult from the B.Auratum so I'm hoping it won't be long till it surfaces and my G.Pulchripes has been in hiding since about 2 days after getting him/her..

When they seal their retreat it's a 'Do Not Disturb' sign. Trust in the spider that it knows what it's doing.
