Betelgeuse the H.maculata arrived 27th August, and hasn't eaten a thing. I've tried live and pre-killed prey.
Shes usually in her web tunnel, but she has been moving around as shes webbed and pooped, she was just never out when Iwas around. As far as I know she'd been drinking as I'd have to replenish the water often.
Yesterday she was walking around the enclosure and I tried feeding her. She would grab and hold the prey, but not bite and eventually let go. I left the cricket in, and she seemed to be satlking it the rest of the night.
This morning she was out but scuttled for cover as soon as I spotted her.
This evening I found her in a death curl.
I don't know if it was a sucking stomach issue, I haven't had a molt from her. She was a replacement for another on a past order that arrived in death curl (no blame on the vendor, everything else I've bought has been great).
Sucks
