4 days of not eating isn't somthing to wory about. If her abdomen is plump, then there is no need to wory about her starvation.
I would say it is about time for her next molt - usualy for that size it's a bit over a mounth to two mounths between molts, but it depends alot on how much she has eaten, how warm and damp her suroundings are (and I am also checking a theory that the size of their enclusre might have somthing to do with it as well - what do you think guys?? ).
Is she closing the enterances to her web? that is usualy a good indicator for a molt.
just make sure that the food isn't left with her to bug her. try feeding her again in about 4 days and if she rejects the food, remove it and wait.
Good luck,
Yinnon.
