About 15 minutes ago I gave my 2 1/2" T. Stirmi a cricket. I dropped it before I wanted to so I shooed it over to Samsquanch and watched the live take down (my first, it was amazing). I came back and checked on her, and there's no cricket in site, corpse or otherwise.
I realize they don't eat the exoskeleton of the cricket, but could it have killed, eaten, and discarded it that quick? It took one before I could drop it off the tongs yesterday, and I haven't uncovered that bolus yet.
It seems like she held on to the mealworm I gave her the first night for quite a while (found those remains) and the cricket yesterday for a good bit as well, but I didn't expect her to discard this one so quickly. Should I be looking for another eaten cricket or one that is dead but intact?
