Hi all I have a versi I just rehoused that I posted the pics of here on the board. So she seems to be settling in fine with a good start on her new tube web. Well today I put a lobster roach in the top of the web and as normal she hit it instantly and curled it under so great shes feeding. So I go to turn the lights out 5 hours later and on the terrarium floor I noticed the roach sitting on the bottom. I thought I dropped another in I wasn't aware when I fed earlier. So I pinched the roach and figured let's see if versi want's another and bang she hits it the same so I walk off. I pass by 5min later and check and the T released the roach found it on the bottom again but well stunned from the venom. So now I know it was the same roach from earlier:mad: Why would this be happening is she getting ready to molt:?

It is possible. She might not be super hungry right now, or she might just be playing with her food. When was her last moult and how big is she?

The T is 3" pics under the my 3 sling post or rehoused versi post. The last molt was 10weeks ago . The roach was around 5/8" little smaller than I normally feed
had some left over after feeding my B dragons and fed them off to the T's.
