Hi, I have a sub-adult b.smithi, and I bought it on July 10th. It hasn't accepted food since, is extremely skittish, and won't burrow. It really prefers to be above its hide. Soil is bone dry.
The shop I purchased it from said that she was feeding every week, although I was sceptical as the clerk who took payment was timid, and wouldn't go near her. So he was either not sure, or had nothing to do with her.
I've kept her under the same conditions my G.rosea and Euathlus sp red, with coco fibre substrate, a small petre dish with water thats been dechlorinated over night or longer, with a hide. Humidity is at 60% and the temperature is room temperature at 75.2 faranheit (UK South West temperature-no heat mat).
I'm just wondering is this natural, or am I doing something wrong, or does anyone have any suggestions. My rosea and euatlus are regular feeders.
