    Is your GABF an adult or a baby ?
    This is typical behaviour for GABF.
    In Nature, they are burried several months per year during the dry season.
    They only go out during rain season for breeding and eating.

    My former female was burried 10 months per year, and she had no health problems.

    It is a baby .. Just about 3 inches . did you keep your substrate wet or let it dry out for her to burrow down like that ?

    No, care conditions equal all the year (Wet substrate).
    But for a baby, you should put a level of substrate si that she can't burrow.
    She has to eat a lot.
    When she is adult, then provide enough substrate so that she can burrow when she wants, even during 10 months.
