Tossed a cricket in to my B. Boehmei Scarlet O'Hairy and my aim was a little too good...lol. Scarlet didn't even flinch! She sat there for at least 15 minutes with the cricket on her back...lol..and that cricket didn't budge either. For as jumpy as those crickets are it's funny how they seem to know they need to stay still. Snapped a quick pic to share. By the way..some how the cricket got away!

My mom and I were looking at pictures of Lunch Box last night and we both have to ask, How did the name come about?

On topic, that is too cute. Darn those crickets and their smart self preservations!

ive never had a crik get on one of my Ts before but i have had them run under one and then the T run away like the crik was out to get it, even had my G. pulchripes run from them before (6 inch spider chased by a 1 inch feeder)
