they do eat birds...and what i explained is true...i seen this on animal planet and clips of it on the internet. I've also talked to a few entomologists about it.

The only show I have seen with a T eating a bird was of a Avic species eating a baby bird out of a nest. Just because some species (aboreal) may eat birds, do to the fact that they already live in trees and will eat anything they can catch, does not mean that all T's will climb a tree to eat birds. Due to the extreme size of a T. blondi, it is very doubtful that in nature it would climb to any appreciable height in order to get a meal thereby risking death. a T.blondi would probably eat an injured or baby bird if it was found within proximity of the ground.

feeding a T a bird and it actively going out and hunting one are 2 different things .i would like to see it in the wild.

Amen to that, pedro.

>>You actually fed your spider a parakeet??I think you took a big chance there of injuring your spider if you did.Have you ever taken a bite from a parakeet.Even for their small size their hooked bills are quite nasty...very sharp and strong...sharp and strong enough to kill,let alone "easily" injure your spider.I think "if" I had the need/urge to feed my spider a bird I'd stick with something along the lines of a small canary or finch and make sure the spider is definitely big enough to easily take it down.I'd not feed it a hook billed bird for sure.Too risky.

I guess he was lucky there. I really want to see something about a blondi eating a bird too. That would be awesome but i doubt it.

My Blondi cant climb glass but can vvv nearly make it to freedom by climbing the sealant along the corners.

Interesting...mine has attempted to use that as well as the humidity gage to gain leverage. Pretty creative escape attempts!

 

[Runaway987]

Yeah its pretty mad watching this fat arse spider levering himself up a thin blueish line using 2 legs, looks like some bad arnie movie or something...

 

[Atalanta]

That is a funny sight. When mine slides down the glass, he gets frustrated and hisses before attempting another climbing feat.

I hiss back and tell him he's terrestrial.

Hahahahahhahahaha

Oh thats another coffee coloured laptop...

thanks for all the great replies to my question everyone. im not sure if my blondi is a she or a he, and it is indeed on new substrate, being that i just bought him/her a short time ago.
