So I've gotten this mature female gbb for about 6 months now and it's not really webbed up much. In fact, it's super shy and spends most of its days(and nights) hiding in a "hide" of webbing it made the corner of the enclosure behind the plastic plant. I know GBBs can be skittish but mine is even scared of its food(dubias)! In fact, i see my juvi O. Violaceopes more than it!
It just moulted a month ago and had eaten only once since. But since then it's been hiding and super scared even when i place a dying roach the start of its hide. I know spiders often fast but aren't gbbs known for their huge appetites? Is there anything wrong with my setup?
PS: I use a coco fibre and sand mix with some moss thrown in. I keep the substrate bone dry and only overflow the water dish once or a week or less.
Also, this pic is the first time in a month since ive seen it out, dropped a roach and it bolted to the top of the enclousure.
