Hi everyone, I'm new to the hobby and I have an Acanthoscurria Geniculata sling, I got it two weeks ago and the problem is he's not eating and he's not very active either. He has burrowed himself (luckily the burrow is in a corner of the enclosure so I can see him) and he spends most of the time in there. I've got some mealworms for him, but he has only eaten once 10 days ago. I've tried to feed him 3 times since then but he refused it, I even put the worm in his burrow but he still didn't want to eat he ran away from it... Today he was out of the burrow so I thought it was a good change to feed him, so I placed two worms really close to him, one of the worm moved so close that he touched it's leg but still no luck
On the care sheets I read about this species that it "eats like horses", so is my sling in premolt? He hasn't webbed the entrance to the burrow.
