Advice for Brachypelma Hamorii juvenile enclosure

[Diidea]

Hii! I'm new to the hobby and I am a proud owner of a Brachypelma Hamorii. I studied a lot regarding keeping tarantula's, and since it's new to me I'm a bit insecure and want to do good. I want my T's to be as happy as possible.
I got her two weeks ago, and she hasn't eaten yet. I feel like I made a bit of a mistake with the placement of her burrow. It is way to close to the lid. Since a few days she webbed her burrow, which I understand is normal behaviour. But it is difficult to feed and water her water dish. She feels it everytime I open the enclosure and I feel like I'm disturbing her a lot with that and stressing her out. My question is: should I rehouse her to an enclosure with the lid on top, rearrange her enclosure or just leave it like this?
Hope this isn't a silly question, and thanks in advance!

Stress is wildly blown out of proportion, so I wouldn’t worry about that. As far as feeding goes since it’s webbed it’s burrow there’s no point in feeding till it comes back out. And continue to fill the water bowl regardless!

Thank you for the advice! It's just that everytime I open it, she notices and runs out of her hide, destroying her own web. That's why I use the word stressed. And ofcourse I always make sure the water dish is filled.

@Diidea Can you put a pic of the whole enclosure on here? We'll get a better idea of what the problem is. A pic of the T would be good too, or an idea of it's size if you can't get a pic. I love B hamorii's, they're so pretty.

The enclosure is 15x15x15 cm (6'') (left one)

And this is the best photo I have of her:

Sorry for the horrible quality my camera is not that good
Regarding size, I didn't got the chance to properly meassure her but I think she is approximately 6 cm (2.4"). And I agree she is soo pretty!

It looks like it opens at the front? If it was me I'd put her in a top opening enclosure. It makes maintenance so much easier and you can put in deep enough sub so that she wouldn't hurt herself if she's climbing the walls and has a fall. No more than 1.5 times her diagonal leg span from ceiling to sub, as a guide.

Don't worry too much about feeding, they can go for ages without food. If you try to feed her and she doesn't want it, just remove the feeder and try again in a week. As long as there's fresh water, she'll be OK.

Thank you for the advice! I realised the mistake when I was trying to feed her, like I'm playing hard mode lol. I chose this one because it was the only glass enclosure I could get nearby. I'm definitely going to look for one that opens from the top.
I'm not worried about her appetite, just a bit sad because I love watching takedowns. My G. Pulchra sling is a great eater

I got the same enclosure for my B. Hamorii and i just turned it around to have it a top-lid enclosure.

That is genius!! Weird how I haven't thought of that haha.
