G. Pulchra got scared by cricket

[BrittanyDelafuente]

My Grammostola Pulchra sling is pretty feisty most of the time and tries to "get me" when I mess around his enclosure. When I fed him yesterday the cricket scared him. It cracked me up. My big tough sling scared of a cricket. Lol (I usually feed him smaller crickets but this was the smallest my pet store had)

He might be in premolt. If he starts molting with a live cricket in there, it can be a disaster because crickets attack Ts when they molt.

He ate it shortly after. I'm terrified a cricket would hurt my baby so I watch until he eats it and if he doesnt really seem interested I take the cricket out and try the next day
