T. Stirmi (AF) Duchess

Duchess having a mid afternoon snack. 2 locusts.
@Marija thsnk you, she is ☺ I still think a tiny bit smaller than the male which is why I am trying to bulk her up.....lol since getting her on Wednesday evening she has had 6 adult crickets and 2 large locusts. Just thrown another locust in as well and so that will be gone soon. They are very impressive spiders but not for the faint of heart.
 
@Shampain no trouble at all atm. The male is still in the tank he came in. I transferred the female from her aquarium into the same set up as the male by putting a big sweet box over her and effectively cupping her. the guy I got her from wanted to keep some of the ornaments in the tank so he took that out and I think the hairs in the sub and plants were going to give him a world of pain but I just emptied the original sub straight into a bin, used a dust pan to get any stuck to the glass and just moved her into the new one no flicking and no rashes (yet).....lol
