It just feels weird in the mouth.
Is that your FINAL answer?Lol.
I meant "big"
Meh, the iceberg is more interesting than the thread.I think I steered the ship into an iceberg when I also referenced the gbb.
Lasiodora parybahanaFirst things first...what you are calling feisty and aggressive is commonly known as “Feeding Response “. There are many different species each with own “general traits” concerning feeding response.
What species of Tarantula do you have?
I'm raising two L.parahybana slings. Both started as 1/2” sling, one is currently 3”+ and was recently rehoused into an intermediate enclosure. The 2nd sling is currently ~1.5” and is housed in a 4X4X4 AMAC box.Lasiodora parybahana
There's your answerLasiodora parybahana
They're great eaters but the response on how they catch, bounce, or kill prey is entirely random. If they're hungry, they'll go for the prey, so don't expect this amazing feeding response when feeding. Some days the feeding responses are greater or more entertaining than other days. But I wouldn't expect an amazing feeding response every time I feed a T. whether a it is a species that is a great eater or not. So your answer: just let it eat if it's hungry.Lasiodora parybahana
You could be playing the wrong music. When I play music for mine, it's an 8 legged mosh pit here.How come none of the T’s I have are feisty?
That never happens here, that's some crazy talkAre we being trolled here?
I love your sense of humor.That never happens here, that's some crazy talk
Life's too short not to have fun, and too many people take things too seriously.I love your sense of humor.
Really?? You got a broken A geniculata then. Mine are nuts, even as 1/4 inch slings tackle crickets nearing an inch.I have a range. I have a GBB that is supposed to be a heavy webber and aggressive eater. He is neither of those things. My A. genic, supposedly a murder machine, really doesn't jump on pray. He more meanders over to the general area and waits for the pray to get close.
So even when you have species with a strong feeding response, each T is different and don't always fit the mold.
I have 11 A.geniculata slings...all of them are nuts when it’s feeding time.Really?? You got a broken A geniculata then. Mine are nuts, even as 1/4 inch slings tackle crickets nearing an inch.
I finally found a seller, got 7 slings and an adult female around 5 inches. Gonna breed em as soon as I get a mature male!I have 11 A.geniculata slings...all of them are nuts when it’s feeding time.
That will be an exciting time.I finally found a seller, got 7 slings and an adult female around 5 inches. Gonna breed em as soon as I get a mature male!
