Good evening. I noticed my A versicolor has become largely unresponsive after her last moult. She is an adult approximately fours years old. Always a good eater and actively webs, she has always been in excellent health. She moulted about three days ago and the moult appears good, but now she stays at the bottom of her enclosure in a protective curl. This in and of itself is not so unusual as tarantulas have to harden after moult, but she does not seem to be coming out of it. As she was not moving, I gently touched her with a brush tip and her only response was some weak kicking and went back into her protective curl. Needless to say I do not want to stress her, but I do not want that protective curl turning into a death curl. Humidity is at about 70% at 28C and she has several water dishes at different levels. I haven't run into this before, any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
