my curly hair who is around 2 inches went into his hide about 3 weeks ago and has not come out or eaten he is usually out at night hunting as he eats loads usually,if i lift the tub he is in and look underneath i can see him and he moves slightly so i know hes not dead,will he be getting ready for a shed?i`ve had him from a spiderling and he sheds without any trouble but usually only lasts a few days then he is back to his usual greedy self.

It is a completely normal thing. Sometimes they go in their hides, staying there for a while. They may even seal themselves in. It can be due to an impending moult or just because they want to. Keep an eye on her and I'm sure she'll be fine.

when my curly hair was a baby she sealed herself into her hide and didnt come out again that i seen until she actually outgrew it. (needless to say she was still eating as i was throwing crickets in her hide every so often)
i wouldnt worry, it just seems like a thing they do.

My adult female sealed herself into her burrow and one day bolted out when a cricket was near. There is now a small hole left that she uses as her dining room after catching food.

That's the problem with T's, more often than not you've just got a pet hole of some kind. You need to get another T so you'll have more chance of seeing one... and then another... and another...

Exactly the same as mine. I never see her unless I lift her hide up. She eats because the crickets disappear, but she's not left her hide in a year. Don't worry yourself, she's fine I'm sure.
