Default Why has my avic sling abandoned its web?

It moulted about 2 weeks ago, a few days later it came out its web. I've not had it long but before the moult it was in there all the time, after the moult I saw it in there a few times but for just over a week now as far as I can see its not been back in at all, and its not making any new webs.
Also the web is starting to look a bit dog eared and its not been repairing it either.
Haven't changed anything and its eating fine (like a pig, actually).

Quite a few of my Avics do the same thing. Once they moult they dont seem to be bothered about their web until the next moult is due and they start webbing all over again lol. My peru purple's are the worst for it. I just leave the old webbing alone and let them get on with it
