So I’ve had a Wolf Spider that my buddy caught about a year ago at his work, brought it to me because he thought it was a Tarantula. Definitely was a big ol Wolf Spider, and I decided to keep her. I’m usually not for keeping Wild creatures because I feel bad, but this Wolfie is gorgeous and big and I thought I’d try keeping a Wolf Spider since I have Tarantulas, Scorps, Centipedes, but haven’t have a Spider.
I’ve had her for a year, she’s a confirmed Female since she laid a dud egg sack, and she’s always been content in her home, not trying to escape, and always eating and drinking.
The past week she’s been doing nothing but trying to escape. I feed her, she keeps the cricket or mealworm in her mouth for like a day, or even as short as 5 minutes, and drops it and it’s STILL alive. I feel as though she cannot envenomate or something, because her prey always gets off the hook and is still alive and well. She keeps dropping her food and never kills it anymore. She is constantly been trying to escape this past week.
I honestly feel bad, maybe she needs to be released, but she’s been so good this whole year and now suddenly she’s acting this way. I really love her. But What’s wrong with her? I have a good feeling I have her home made wrong, any ideas or suggestions?
