My A. Avic likes to drag its food into the water dish and leave it there for a bit, I guess to soften it up?, now its meals are pre-killed so it doesn't have much of a feeding habit yet or much of a hunt, but I have caught it sitting on top of the prey sometimes as if "I'm the boss, and I killed you", meanwhile.. it was already dead.

My G. Rosea has not eaten in my care, so not sure yet.. I'm excited to see, I feel as if she will just wait for the prey to come to her though.

My P. Imperators(Yes I know they arnt tarantulas lol but I might as well throw them in this convo). They will wait by the cave entrance with claws wide open until the prey comes to them, but sometimes the crickets like to bask on top of the cave, so then the scorpion will come out and climb on top of the cave to stir them all up and then go to the ground and sit very still, and when one gets close enough, it will close its claws on them. My P. Imperators can be pigs. I have often caught them with a complete mouth full of cricket and then a cricket in each claw just munching away.
