I know there are many threads but it just worries me as both my Brachypelma boehmei and tliltocatl albopilosum have not eaten at all the week i got them. I am new and I know tarantulas will eat when they want to eat but I was just wondering if I might be stressing them out too much.
My boehmei is smaller and hasn't made a burrow but will most the time run away from the pinhead B.lateralis I give him/her. It doesn't appear to have a shiny abdomen so I am hoping it is just fasting or something. Then my albopilosum decided to make a burrow throughout the bottom of my container and I haven't see it come out besides seeing it through the sides that it cleared substrate out off.
Will they be perfectly fine and I am not worrying like every other post on here about this or am I stressing them out too much by trying to encourage them to eat by dropping in a roach every now and then. Both of there abdomens appear perfectly fine so I don't think they are starving but I don't want my interactions to cause them to never want to eat.
