hey guys I'm a newbie to tarantulas and I'm concerned with my first b.smithi. She's a good size but not adult yet. The first two days I had her she ate with no problems. Now she doesn't want to eat and she's just sits in the corners all day. Is this normal? Any advice please?

Hi and welcome.Tarantulas do not need feeding every day, every 7-10 days is sufficient unless they are just slings in which case twice a week is enough

At least you can see yours. Mine stays under water dish in her burrow and all I mostly see is mounds of dirt she's pushed out while excavating. They just aren't the most mobile of pets. But I love mine anyway.
