My lasiodora parahybana sling acts different when I put crickets in its enclosure. . All the other slings just attack and eat but this one raises it's front 2 legs in a stiking position and looks like its just threatening the cricket... it does this for five minutes every time before it will actually eat it

They're all different, even Ts of the same species. Maybe he's putting on a show for you :D

Might just be a bit more skittish of a T so it's startled and goes defensive at first. Do you wait a little after opening its enclosure to let it settle in after its whole enclosure was just being shook around?
