I don't know if this only applies to slings but i have one A. Geniculata, around 2" DLS now. I have always fed it mealworms its size and noticed that the mealworm still keeps on struggling under its fangs, trying its best to bite my T for maybe a maximum duration of 15 mins - i always feel uneasy during this part but I don't like feeding pre-killed prey to my T also.
I always thought T venom works fast to immobilize the prey, at least that's what nat geo led me to believe throughout the years. Now i just think the venom is only for liquefying prey and they just die solely from the fluid loss or crushed body parts. I would really like to watch the prey weaken ASAP. Should i get old worlds for that or will the potency increase with age for my sling?
