I have several species in my collection that are considered "pet holes." I knew this before buying and don't have a problem with it because, even then, there was activity of some sort to let me know things were ok. I often notice substrate moved around, new webbing, food gone, etc. so I feel comfortable that things are going as planned, and I don't disturb the t. However, I have an adult female L. violacepes that I haven't seen in months. I caught a glimpse in July one warm evening, but since then, nothing. Nor is there signsof life such as the aforementioned substrate moving, food gone, etc. I'd like to assume she is fine or in pre-molt, but is she? Is this typical of this species? (Trying to *not* dig her out of her hole.)
Oh, she's housed in a large cheez balls jar with ample vent holes, a cork tube buried in substrate about 1/3 full. She originally webbed a tunnel down the center of the tube and deposited substrate at the entrance. No sign of any new goings on in weeks and weeks...
