Yep, definitely too big

First of all, it’s usually not so safe to feed wild caught insects.

Second of all, yes, that is way too large for your spider to tackle.

What’s can happen feeding them wild caught insects? As long as it’s in their diet? Not trying to be rude I just want to understand

The insect can have parasites or diseases, which can harm your spider

Yep that besides the hassle of catching them plus I don’t see many bugs beside bees .. I swore one guy keeps popping up who only feeds but I think but I don’t really believe it .

Even that poster ended up learning the hard way when his T got parasites and swore to never do it again.

Yeah he said he lost a centepede to horse hair worms .. I doubt he feeds wc anymore after that post . Plus no way you could feed 40 Ts + with wc ..not unless you live in the Amazon rain forest lol .. the appetite requires cb. 2+2 doesn’t =100 .. just not feasible to catch so many bugs even for an expert catcher like me.
