Brazilian white knee juvenile

[ARTarantula]

Hi all, just some noob questions.

I am starting to worry about my white knee, she faces backwards in he hide and has not come out for 2 days unless she has at night, he or she is a juvenile and about 6/7cm.

She burrowed first day but i sort of spoilt it as i removed the Cork bark to make it smaller as it was a tight squeeze in the tank so i might have messed up there.

Tonight was her first feed and she initially went for the cricket but then backed off and no longer seemed interested, so i removed it from her tank.

She came postal so does she need more time or should i be worried?

Give her a little time to calm down from her ride. Make sure she has a small dish of water to drink...bottle cap works great. I usually wait 3-5 days after receiving Ts in the mail to feed them.

You can kill the cricket and lay it in front of the burrow...if it's not gone in a day throw it away. Then try again in a couple more days.

cheers i will try this but we have been out today and got back and again she/he has pretty much blocked off the entrance to the hide, I am semi convinced she is now in premault?
