My Mexican Redleg won't come out

I have a juvenile(?) Mexican Redleg that I got from a pet store. I know I know, but I was there for something else, saw it and felt bad for it. It did fine for a while; dug a burrow but would come out and eat crickets and drink. Now it's been in its burrow for about 2 weeks and I haven't seen it out at all. I can see into its burrow from one side of its enclosure and nothing looks to be wrong, yet I'm still concerned. Any advice?

Nqa, 2 weeks? That's like 2 minutes for a Tarantula. There are others here that have reported their Ts staying burrowed for 6+ months. My Xenesthis immanis hasn't come out of her burrow except to push out her molts for the past 3 months. Tarantula keeping is all about patience. We all have pet rocks, pet holes, or pet leaves.

  That's what I thought but I'm new to this (as an adult) so I wanted to get some input. Thanks!

NQA It is common for young tarantulas to burrow and hide for weeks to months. They are small and vulnerable at this stage, so they are more likely to scavenge and avoid coming out to survive. When I brought home my curly hair, he burrowed for a couple months, then molted and came out, then burrowed for a few weeks and molted again before coming out. Keep offering food. Remove after 24-48 hours. Fill the water dish. You can offer pre killed food, as some small tarantulas prefer to scavenge rather than hunt live prey, but still remove any uneaten food. Do not dig up your spider, as you run the risk of hurting or causing it undue stress. Wait, as hard as it may seem.

  This is exactly what I thought but I appreciate you confirming it for me. I'm not sure of the sex which is why I keep saying "it". It molted once and then was out pretty much every day and eating regularly for maybe 3 weeks to a month. Then it went in its hole and stayed. It hasn't molted again or at least I don't see a shed. I kinda have to turn the enclosure to see into its burrow so I try not to do it very often. And I have offered some freshly dead crickets but it hasn't eaten them. It always has fresh water.

NQA after a rehouse, my G Rosea sling dug a burrow overnight and then sealed off the opening 6 months ago. She literally just came out yesterday. Your spider is fine 😉
