So 4 days after purschasing my little juvi aureostriata, she decided to bulldoze her enclousre and bury herself completely. I haven't seen her in going on three months now. I've asked some advice on other boards here and there and always kind of get a "oh yeah, they do that" with no more details. Although she's apparently not very hungry or thirsty, I know she's alive and well as I can (gently) lift her cage and see her from the bottom.
Does anybody have an idea of what I might be able to do to coax her out of her self-induced seclusion? Or do I just need to leave her be? And if so, what does that mean? How long will she be in there?
I have more overall experience with keeping scorpions and in the past when I've found one determined to be strictly nocturnal, I usually provide a sort of half hide that kinda forces it to be more active during the day. Would this be too stressful for a T? In other words, do I *need* to leave her be?
