[QUOTE="kormath, post: 59658, member: 4199"] There is! And it's a fast acting illness. Welcome Agno! I'd be careful on what you feed it when 'catching in the wild'. Remember anything that the bug eats the spider will ingest. Not sure where you're from but i'd never feed mine the grasshoppers and locusts around here with all the farm fields and their pesticides and fertilizers. my suggestions is to check your local pet store (lps) and see if they have feeder crickets or worms or roaches. Your T will eat the same feeder insects they sell for lizards. I'm not sure on the size of the A. Avic after 5 or 6 molts but i'd think flies would be too small. I'd go with small/medium crickets or small roaches, much better nutrition from roaches and crickets than flies. Someone with A. Avic experience please correct me if this is wrong. :) Good luck with your T! We'd love to see some pictures :) [/QUOTE]
