[QUOTE="Gizalba, post: 177140, member: 31253"] Hello, I have read that you should remove any uneaten food after 24 hours, however I have seen lots of videos where the owner is offering the insect to the tarantula then taking it straight out again if it doesn't eat within a minute or so. Also, what happens when a cricket falls down the T's hole but you are not sure if it was eaten or not? I worry about pestering her with crickets if she doesn't want them, but then once it has fallen down I don't want to invade. If she is unhappy with it will she push it out again? I have seen her moving around outside of her hide quite a lot within the last few hours so I don't think she is molting, but what if she is in premolt and the cricket bothers her? [/QUOTE]
