She's refusing her food

[kenna.casale]

Ive had my chilean rose, Buddha for a little over a year now and her previous owners didnt take much care of her, her owner told me she forgot she had her and didnt feed her for three months. I made sure to feed her biweekly, but recently for maybe 3 or 4 months she has been refusing to eat and she doesnt leave her hide much on top of that her abdomen seems to be getting a little thin. Im very concerned and im not sure whats going on with her and I definitely can afford a visit to the vet at this moment, if they can even help.

She's probably in pre molt.relax and make sure the humidity is right in her terrarium.

Thank you, I had a thought that pre molt could have been the case but I just wanted more opinions on the matter. I took a better look at her and I did find a patch on her abdomen that looked similar to pre molt and she did recently laid down some very thick webbing on the entry of her hide. So im hopping shes fine and im just overthinking it. Im sure for Chilean Rose Hairs a more dry environment is best, but please anyone correct me if im wrong haha. And thanks again.
