First time I've seen this.....

My Sulawesi black molted 8 days ago. It has an intricate web tunnel up against the enclosure glass and cork bark, so it's impossible to retrieve the molt. I figured it'd drag it out like most do. Well today I dropped a cricket in, and coaxed it toward the burrow opening. Like lightning the killer got it.
I left it be, but just checked it, and now, the cricket is almost gone but it rolled its own molt into the cricket pie, and its sucking a cricket-molt concoction. So its eating itself lol

Forgot to update, but it apparently didn't like the taste. It left the remaining molt up in its water dish

I've had my B. vagans chew on it's molt before. I'm guessing it's to retrieve any moisture left behind?

Yea but thus molt was a days old potato chip by now. It was right where it grabbed the cricket so I think it just wrapped them both up thinking food
