A few videos of my OBT.

[Lsal]

Just thought I would share some feeding videos I have gotten of my P. murinus, he is a pretty enthusiastic eater. Always sits in the open 24/7, and I haven't seen any threat displays yet. He is my favorite, but I don't tell the other ones that.

Sorry for the poor quality video and camera work! I am a little new at this, and not working with the best equipment

Great vids!

Love seeing those mean little buggers in action. Almost makes it worth nearly getting my face ripped off.

Thanks for the nice responses everyone! I've been trying to get some good footage of my slings too, but it is a lot more difficult for me to do because of their size. I will definitely keep trying though.

Also, for those of you who liked the tackle video

I find it interesting that he displays such variation in strategy when it comes to hunting. I have seen times where he has sensed prey nearly at the other end of the cage and slowly stalks into position; other times he just dashes over and picks them up. I don't think I am going to try tong feeding this one though lol.

Wow.. Just.. wow. So what football team do you think will draft him?

 

[Wachusaynoob]

I love how in the first one you are almost Screaming at it.

Wow.. Just.. wow. So what football team do you think will draft him?

I have no idea, I would rather see him get through college first.

As a side note, I am almost certain that my A. metallica sling is starting to molt right now! Why do they always have to wait until 5 am...

Looks like I will be sleeping in tomorrow!
