Good pics, I fed a mouse to my Schmidti once & regreted it after I had to clean up the leftovers. Be sure to post pics of the leftovers:}

I'm with the others clean up is going to be nasty especially seeing that mouse was pretty big, so you'll have a lot of lovely leftovers.

Thats why if I feed mice I stick with fuzzys, my bigger ts leave no left overs.

If your blondi is anything like mine clean-up shouldnt be too bad. My girl is very tidy and places the bulk of her mess in her water dish.

nice pics!

Although it is your choice to post your photo, I find it truly offensive. Is there some sort of demented thrill from giving a mouse that size to a tarantula? I really don't get it.

I'm not sure I really like it. I'd probably feed my bigger spiders mice too, but it just looks really brutal. Especially from pic 4 and down.

No, it does not. Of course a tarantula may find and eat a vertebrate in the wild once in a while, but in nature, the mouse is not enclosed with the spider, and they are not forced to fight to the death. That does not happen in the wild. You are lucky the mouse didn't bite your blondi's leg off, I've seen it happen too many times.
Nice pics.

Its very impressive, but very unecessary.

Lions kill Impala everyday, yet they don't get a live Impala in a zoo.


It happens everyday in the wild, but a T's enclosure certainly isn't the wild.

you're right about that...but T's are not lions...what can I do?feed my T with what?!I live in Croatia,,and here only food for T's I can buy is Tenebrio Molitor...and i can not feed a blondi mealworms..
I can only feed it with crickets or grasshoppers and my blondy would eat 10 crickets a day...Sorry but it's reality..Do you people eat meat?And what do you think,,how do this animals day?even worse than this mouse..he was quickly euthanased,and the pics were taken out when the mouse was already dead...

I kinda doubt your T eats 10 crickets a day, and if you cant feed it properly, then you should've thought twice about getting a blondi.

Most definitely, but I am not going to post pics of an abbatoir here.

In any event, they are awesome pics, just a little extreme. :)
