[QUOTE="Miss Moxie, post: 122888, member: 27149"] Have any scorpions? They put tarantulas to shame when it comes to eating. I watched a male C. gracilis of mine eat a live, scrabbling cricket face first while holding another in it's claw for later. They're savages. I even have a picture. ;) [IMG]http://78.media.tumblr.com/7ea8f9841402ed80c226b6131e36b04a/tumblr_oxsjj6OpgS1tiveumo1_1280.jpg[/IMG] As for her molting, increases in temperature definitely help trigger molts. It's also possible that there was something wrong with her last molt that you could not see and she molted again to correct it. Injured Ts have been known to molt faster, in some sort of evolutionary genius. Wish we could get a new body when something of ours gets damaged. [/QUOTE]
