Message: <blockquote data-quote="Konstantin" data-source="post: 194622" data-attributes="member: 30996">HiTarantula not eating is rarely a concern  as long as it has access to fresh water.I have 2 B emilia and this species is not with the best feeding response.My only worse is my Aphonopelma calcodes that was refusing food for just over an year before she moulted. I have one juvenile female( 3.5 -4 inch)and a small sling.They both refuse food as they please and both eat when its quiet and Im not around (usually at night).The juvenile I feed every 2 weeks and sometimes she will stop eating for about 70 ish days and Im yeey premoult  and then she starts eating again to rain on my parade same for my little sling with the difference that it only stops eating for 20 ish days  and I offer food it every 4 days as its only 1,5 ish cm atm.Have you tried different feeder my juvenile female will not touch anything apart from standard size brown crickets. I offered her large brown crickets,black crickets, similar size dubia roaches,morio worms and meal worms  and she refused them all.Some Ts are just weird like that.Regards Konstantin</blockquote>
